Bilibili Strategic Investments

Sony Innovation Fund is split into several separate funds instead of one, including an early-stage fund run directly by Sony, a growth-stage fund with Daiwa, a climate-focused fund, an Africa entertainment fund, and later-stage funds through Sony Ventures, with investment decisions made by a committee that includes corporate executives and business division heads; it doesn't require startups to work with Sony, though about 40% end up collaborating with the company in some way across areas like gaming, semiconductors, electronics, music, film, and finance. The fund has backed unusual, frontier-type companies like an odor digitization startup, a sampling-rights marketplace, an AR display company, and a heart-failure regenerative medicine company, and its leaders describe the work as end-to-end business incubation covering sourcing, diligence, execution, value enhancement, monitoring, and exit rather than just providing capital.
