BLOCKS MEGURO

RJ Office Co., Ltd. (CEO: Koji Kishida), which operates the shared office BLOCKS OFFICE, and Nisshoho Co., Ltd. (CEO: Junya Toyooka), which supports corporate growth with security deposits, will launch an initiative to support the challenges of growing companies at BLOCKS MEGURO (2-15-19 Kami-Osaki, Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo / 1-minute walk from JR Meguro Station).

Through Nisshoho's security deposit guarantee, the typically required security deposit (equivalent to 2 months' rent) will be eliminated, allowing companies to move in without the burden of a security deposit. After moving in, Nisshoho will serve as a contact point for free information provision and expert referrals regarding challenges in the growth phase, such as fundraising and M&A.

* Costs other than the security deposit (monthly rent, other initial fees) are required separately.

About BLOCKS OFFICE

BLOCKS OFFICE is a shared office with the concept of "OFFICE HOUSE," where you can concentrate more than at home and relax like you are at home. It supports diverse work styles such as private rooms, booths, and coworking, and is used by companies and individuals of various sizes.

BLOCKS MEGURO is a 1-minute walk from the East Exit of JR Meguro Station. It has over 800 seats, 10 meeting rooms accommodating 4 to 20 people (up to 60 people), and a reception with a concierge on duty. It also supports 24/7 access and corporate registration.

Security Deposit Burden Eliminated with Nisshoho's Introduction

Generally, office contracts require significant initial costs upon move-in. Among these, the security deposit (guarantee deposit) is substantial, and at BLOCKS MEGURO, it typically requires an amount equivalent to 2 months' rent.

In this initiative, Nisshoho will guarantee the security deposit, and the owner will bear the guarantee fee. Tenant companies will not need to deposit the security deposit, allowing them to focus their funds and time on their core business.

* Monthly rent and other fees will be borne separately. Only the security deposit will be waived.

Nisshoho to Introduce Experts from Fundraising to Business Succession

Companies moving into BLOCKS MEGURO can consult with Nisshoho free of charge regarding management challenges faced during their growth and expansion phases. Nisshoho will leverage its credit and financial data accumulated through its guarantee business, along with its nationwide network of businesses, to introduce experts and organizations in various fields. Specific transactions will be handled by each expert and registered vendor.

Fundraising - Information provision and expert referrals related to regional banks, Japan Finance Corporation, venture capital, etc. M&A - Referrals and bridges to experts (M&A advisors, etc.) when considering acquisitions or transfers. Finance - Information provision regarding cash flow management and building financial structures.
