Mizuho Capital
Mizuho Capital was established in 1983. It serves as the dedicated venture unit inside Mizuho Financial Group. The firm deploys across venture and growth equity in information technology, healthcare, biotechnology and manufacturing. Strategies include early-stage seed and start-up rounds, expansion and late-stage growth, co-investments and buyouts. Geographic reach centers on Japan with additional activity in Asia and North America. No recent operational events from the last 24 months appear in available records. Team size and adjacent vehicles remain undisclosed. The firm operates as an internal corporate venture arm rather than an independent manager, which shapes mandate, sourcing and decision rights through the parent bank.
