Investment thesis
Kepple focuses on direct secondary investments in startups through its Kepple Liquidity Fund, launched in 2022 as Japan's first fund dedicated to this approach. By facilitating liquidity in otherwise rigid capital and reallocating investor funds and talent, the firm aims to achieve optimal capital allocation across the domestic startup ecosystem. It supports portfolio companies by removing business and capital-structure constraints and providing time for growth, seeking to create a virtuous cycle of capital that helps the overall ecosystem grow larger. The firm prioritizes disciplined management and respect for environmental, social, and governance principles in its investment decisions.
