Use this comparison to check fit before contacting a firm. Country tags describe reported locations or country-list membership; they do not establish where a firm is willing to invest.
Build an outreach list that fits your company
For Japan, confirm location eligibility before preparing a full pitch: where must the company be incorporated, where should the team operate, and does the investor back companies expanding into the market? A local office alone does not answer those questions.
- Check the mandate. Confirm sector, stage, geography, check size, and whether the firm leads or follows rounds.
- Find the relevant partner. Read current team profiles and recent investments before asking for an introduction.
- Make the fit specific. Explain your product, customer evidence, round size, and why this firm is a match.
- Use the correct submission route. A general office contact may not accept investment pitches. Look for a current pitch form or a partner’s published instructions.
