Under the mission of "making the world a better place through the internet," the GREE Group has been investing in startup companies and venture capital firms, primarily in the internet and IT sectors, since 2010.
In 2020, GREE Ventures, Inc. was newly established, taking over the investment business previously conducted by GREE itself. This change in framework and strengthening of the system aims for the long-term development of the business. We also operate a base in San Francisco, USA, which similarly invests in startup companies and venture capital firms.

GREE Group's investment business is advancing "startup investment," which directly invests in startup companies, in addition to "fund investment," which invests in VC funds in Japan and North America. The scale of this business is one of the largest among domestic operating companies.
To promote this business with higher precision, we are recruiting individuals who can build and strengthen the management operations (middle office operations) of this business.
