Investment thesis
FUNDINNO operates an equity crowdfunding platform connecting retail investors with unlisted, high-growth Japanese startups seeking capital ahead of an IPO. Investors can participate with roughly 100,000 yen per unit across companies spanning seed to later stages, following regulatory changes that now allow fundraises above 100 million yen including large unicorn rounds. The platform highlights revenue-growth rankings of funded companies, angel tax incentives, and periodic investor relations updates so backers can track portfolio progress. It emphasizes a fully online, roughly three-minute investor registration and a broad selection of deals, aiming to give individuals access to venture returns previously limited to institutional investors.
