Venture

Akira Nagashima joined JAFCO in April 2015 after graduating from the School of Commerce at Waseda University. He is mainly engaged with seed- and early-stage startups, from investment execution to the establishment of post-investment management systems, customer development for sales expansion, and support for building alliances. He is also engaged in planning and managing the Entrepreneurs in Residence (EIR) program.

I would like to spend my days “losing myself” and working with people who are trying to achieve big things. I look forward to working with you.
