Business Development
He graduated from the Faculty of Economics at Shinshu University and joined JAFCO in April 2014. He was engaged in investments in startups in the Kyushu region for about five years at the Kyushu Branch (currently the West Japan Branch). After working at the Venture Investment Division in the head office, he joined the Sales and Marketing Support Team in the Business Development Division in 2020. He is currently in charge of supporting the growth of startups and promoting collaboration with large companies. He is also focusing on lead generation through seminars and webinars to help portfolio companies expand business opportunities.
I have always listened to the voices on the ground while working on investment activities in Kyushu, exploring ways to support portfolio companies during the pandemic, and planning new business conferences. Regardless of age or position, I try to provide support that is close to practical work while paying careful attention to the situation and point of view of the recipient. As a bridge between large companies and startups, I am currently trying to create reproducible collaboration opportunities.
