Frequently asked questions
What investment stages does Mobile Internet Capital target?
MIC covers the full venture lifecycle, from seed and start-up through growth and pre-IPO. The firm's website emphasizes early-stage technology companies with unique business models, and its portfolio includes later-stage positions tied to technology and telecommunications expansion.
Is Mobile Internet Capital a corporate venture capital arm?
No. MIC is an independent venture capital firm, unaffiliated with any single corporate parent. This structural independence differentiates it from many Japanese venture investors that operate as CVC units of large trading companies or financial institutions.
