Investment thesis
Scrum Ventures takes a thematic approach to investing, identifying emerging trends, researching each landscape in detail, and backing early-stage startups poised to reshape their industries. Beyond capital, the firm supports portfolio founders with hiring, strategic advice, and fundraising. A distinctive element is its connection between global startups and established Japanese corporates such as Panasonic, Biprogy, Fujitsu, and DeNA, opening partnership and market-entry opportunities in Japan and beyond. Through Scrum Studio, the firm runs co-innovation and accelerator programs that link global corporations with startups across themes like deeptech, smart cities, well-being, agetech, green tech, and sports innovation.
