CVC Reform & Startup Co-Creation
While the establishment of CVCs is advancing, many companies face issues with strategic direction and the creation of business synergies. Leveraging practical knowledge cultivated through venture investment and a cross-industry perspective on social issues x business creation, DI not only launches and strengthens investment functions, but also promotes social impact through investment and improvements in corporate value.
DI’s approach
Support for launching investment functions
There are many cases in which investment functions are designed as extensions of existing organizations, causing companies to miss promising opportunities because speed and risk tolerance are not aligned. In addition, major companies have limited experience designing investment organizations, and they tend to launch them with ambiguous investment decision criteria and governance, resulting in one-off investments. Harnessing practical knowledge of venture investment, DI realizes the design of functions premised on an agile investment structure and business collaboration.
Startup support x investment strategy
There are cases in which startup selection is biased toward technology or topicality, has weak alignment with the company’s own strategy, and does not lead to continuous value creation. DI combines new business strategies with startup knowledge, identifies synergies between investment potential and improvements in corporate value across a wide range of themes, and designs the optimal form of investment and support.
Corporate value enhancement through ESG investment
There are cases in which companies pursue only ESG evaluation indicators, and a lack of consistency with investment decisions and business growth causes initiatives to become ineffective. Leveraging knowledge of investment practice, new businesses, and management strategies, DI evaluates investment targets from both financial and non-financial perspectives, realizing the design and execution of effective ESG investment.
Impact investment for social transformation
There are cases in which excessive emphasis on social significance leads to insufficient sustainability, preventing value creation. DI identifies bottlenecks to market creation from the perspective of Industry Producing, incorporates investment strategies based on the structure of the issues, and maximizes social impact and business growth.
