Your Japanese Chief-of-Staff
Our Specializations
1 / Mergers & Acquisition in Japan
We empower foreigners and foreign enterprises to seamlessly buy or sell companies in Japan. We are not one of those M&A brokers. We pride ourselves in being a "deal maker", tapping a network of local brokers and managing the entire process to enable faster, smarter deals.
2 / Japanese Public Company Activist Advisory
As seasoned investors, we actively manage our own capital and do not hesitate to launch activist campaigns against underperforming Japanese managers when warranted. In one high-profile case, we spearheaded a fierce proxy fight as shareholders in a small Japanese public company, ultimately replacing the entire board and installing one of our partners as interim CEO. These hands-on victories have equipped us with unparalleled insight into the nuances of Japanese proxy battles and shareholder activism.
3 / Japan Country Manager
Many foreign businesses and startups are eager to tap into the lucrative Japanese market, yet nearly all encounter formidable obstacles from language barriers and entrenched cultural nuances in business practices.
As a perfectly bilingual team of professionals—born and raised in Japan, with proven expertise honed at top U.S. investment banks and law firms—we stand ready to serve as your dedicated Japan Country Manager. Let us expertly navigate the intricacies of local regulations while relentlessly advancing your strategic priorities at every turn, unlocking seamless entry and sustainable success in this high-stakes arena.
