Investment Target

The targeted asset classes are mainly venture, growth and buyout, and we conduct equity investment in companies.

 

Investment Period

To aim for value creation based on a long-term perspective, we expect to exit after, at maximum, seven years from investment.

 

Exit Strategy

To realize our mission, we adopt a rather flexible exit strategy, such as selling to strategic or financial investors and initial public offering (IPO).
