announces the launch of its first investment fund. The fund is designed to leverage Sapphireterra Capital’s activism engagement investing strategy to unlock value in Japan’s public companies.Masakazu “Masa” Hosomizu, founder of Sapphireterra Capital, brings over two decades of expertise in engagement investing in Japan. Known for his track record of successful campaigns and strong collaborative relationships across the country’s business, legal, regulatory, and governance landscape, Masa leads Sapphireterra Capital with a focused vision and deep understanding of Japan's corporate dynamics.

“Activism in Japan is not new to us,” said Masa Hosomizu. “With over two decades of experience investing in Japan, including many activist campaigns engaging with undervalued companies, we have the expertise and dedication needed to make a meaningful impact,” Masa continues. “From day one, we have engaged with Japanese companies through strategic advice and focused activism efforts. We are seeking new relationships with institutional investors such as endowments, pension plans, family offices, and other thoughtful investors who are interested in investing opportunities in Japan.”
