Keiei Sanbo Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Kenji Shintani), which operates the business community bar "Sanbo BAR," will hold a seminar explaining new fundraising methods utilizing the "Special Zone for Financial and Asset Management" over three days: Sunday, May 17, Saturday, May 23, and Monday, May 25, 2026, at "Sanbo BAR Shinjuku" in Shinjuku, Tokyo. On the day, Takumi Takanashi, President and CEO of favy Co., Ltd., will be welcomed as a guest to explain the mechanism of Japan's first "micro VC for individual investors" and the company's own practical case studies that have achieved total fundraising of over 4 billion yen.
*All three dates will cover the same content.
Background of the event
"Fundraising" is always a major management challenge for startups and SMEs as they pursue new challenges. Until now, it was common sense for funds to raise capital from institutional investors and some wealthy individuals, but the special certification of the "Special Zone for Financial and Asset Management" has significantly overturned this premise. With the abolition of asset requirements for individual investors, making it possible to invest from 500,000 yen, the door to venture investment, which was previously closed to a limited segment, has now been widely opened to the general public.
At this seminar, we will share the latest knowledge on fundraising methods utilizing Japan's first "micro VC for individual investors," which symbolizes the "democratization of venture investment," from practitioners who have actually introduced the scheme. This is an opportunity to quickly catch up on the real-world experiences of the latest finance methods that allow companies to gather individual investors who accompany their business growth.
Features and highlights of the seminar
* Explanation of the overview of regulatory relaxation in the "Special Zone for Financial and Asset Management" and specific benefits for business owners.
* Disclosure of the mechanism and utilization steps of Japan's first "micro VC for individual investors."
* favy CEO, who has experience in fundraising over 4 billion yen, will share practical case studies and real-world feedback from his own company.
* Learn next-generation finance strategies to gather individual investors who accompany business growth.
