Bringing Japan's challengersonto the world stage.
Backing Japanese companies as they step into global markets.
Our Global Vision
The 5-year vision
“In five years, UPSIDER will be the first partner Japanese growth companies turn to when going global.”
This page is a declaration. The work is still ahead of us — but stating the destination is how we get there. As cases emerge, this page will grow with them.
Through our strategic partnership with Mizuho Financial Group, we fuse technology with one of the world's most established financial networks — to back Japanese companies' globalization across payments, lending, and cash management.
