Prepare a focused approach

For Sports, compare the investor’s thesis and recent portfolio with your customer, business model and technical needs. A broad sector tag alone does not establish fit.

Before pitching for Japan, confirm incorporation requirements, team location and whether the mandate supports market entry or only established local operations.

Check the current mandate and recent investments.
Confirm check size, lead or follow preference, and company eligibility.
Identify the relevant partner and published pitch route.
Explain your customer evidence, raise and specific reason for approaching this investor.
