Business Development
After graduating from the College of Business Administration, Ritsumeikan University, Takayuki Nishinaka joined JAFCO in April 2006. He experienced a wide range of operations such as startup investments, fund raising, M&A and portfolio company support, and has been a member of the Value Add Division since 2014. He is engaged in supporting recruitment and business development in portfolio companies in the Business Alliance Team and the HR Support Team. He is also involved in team building in portfolio companies, using systems coaching methods for organizational development.
I came across a book in college that strongly attracted me to venture capital work, so I joined JAFCO. Since then, I have been involved in supporting startups and creating collaborations with large companies for a long time. “How can we create reproducible open innovation?” While facing such question, I ask myself questions every day and take on various challenges.
