Message from the Representative Director
We started the 2nd chapter of our corporate stage on October 1, 2024 as "AI Fusion Capital Group, Inc!
AI Fusion Capital Group, Inc. was established on October 1, 2024 through share transfer as the sole parent company of Future Venture Capital Co., Ltd. and listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Standard Market.
While continuing to expand our existing business of regional development funds, CVC funds,and thematic funds, we will also focus on M&A of regional companies and principal investment in startups with growth potential. In order to separate M&A and principal investment from our existing fund management, we have determined that it is optimal to establish a new holding company and shift to a holding company structure in which the operating companies responsible for fund management and the operating companies to be acquired are each held as subsidiaries.
The size of the global AI market (hardware and software platforms for using AI functions and IT services related to building AI systems), which we see as the core of our business, is expected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 30% to approximately US$1.8 trillion by 2030, with the full-scale spread of Generative AI, such as OpenAI's ChatGPT, Microsoft's Microsoft Copilot, and Alphabet's Gemini.
Furthermore, "Generative AI", which generates original data through the use of learned data,will bring "significant work efficiency" and "realization of new ideas" to various industries,including traditional industries as well as IT services, through the generation of text, images,videos, audio, and other data. By 2030, it is predicted that the economic impact on the global economy will be US$15.7 trillion, and that the global GDP will increase by 14% due to AI. This is seen as a mega trend, or the 4th industrial revolution.
Under our newly listed holding company structure, we will work to enhance our corporate value with this AI as the core of our business, aiming to become a capital group that supports the growth of Japan.
We would like to thank you all for your continued support.
Business Strategy
We will make effective use of more than JPY4 billion in funds (total of cash and deposits, investment securities, and treasury stock; balance of interest-bearing debt is zero) to aggressively develop our fund business, including conventional regional development funds, CVC funds, and thematic funds, as well as principal investment and other activities.
Specifically, with AI at the core, we have defined four business domains as our core areas: Principal Investment Business, Fund Business, PIPEs Business, and Investment Banking Business, each of which will drive our group's profit growth as an independent business while generating synergy effects.
