Keisuke Miyoshi joined JAFCO in April 1993. He has been driving the growth of venture companies for 30 years through startup investment, business development, M&A and IPO support. He became a Partner in March 2018 and was appointed President & CEO since April 2022.
I feel that Japan is at a major turning point in its industrial history. The growing complexity of social challenges, the accelerating pace of technological innovation, and the diversification of values present new challenges that cannot be addressed simply by extending past approaches. In this context, the significance of startups that are carving out the future is becoming more important than ever. We will continue to take on challenges based on the strengths that we have cultivated over many years, such as our attitude of being truly close to entrepreneurs and our ability to get things done. I pledge to continue working with entrepreneurs as their partner in launching various businesses and as an investment professional. As both a partner in business creation and as an investment professional, I pledge to continue walking alongside entrepreneurs in their journeys.
