Fukuoka-based F Ventures Launches Major Fund Targeting Early-Stage Startups

F Ventures, a venture capital (VC) firm based in Fukuoka City, has launched a new fund targeting early-stage startups. The fund aims to reach a size of 1.5 billion yen, which is three times the size of the company’s previous fund. The VC firm is also considering the prospect of making multiple investments in companies showing promising growth, with a focus on supporting the rise of new technologies such as Web 3.0.

This marks F Ventures’ third fund. Investors already include venture capital firms such as FFG Venture Business Partners, under the Fukuoka Financial Group umbrella, and investment companies affiliated with Oriental Land. The fund is expected to invest in approximately 30 to 40 companies.

The planned investment per case is estimated to be between 10 and 20 million yen. Due to the expanded scale of the fund, there’s potential for additional investments to be made in companies projected to achieve high growth. Source: PR Times
