Yitu Capital invests both directly in private Japanese companies and as a limited partner in Japanese VC/PE funds. Its direct-investment portfolio disclosed on its website includes companies in OLED emitting materials, clinical-stage biopharma, online funeral-services SaaS, fintech, a trading-card-game marketplace, satellite propulsion R&D, short-distance mobility, and traditional machiya hospitality.

The firm cites commitments to an early-stage venture capital firm it describes as Japan's most active seed investor, an emerging 'Japan to Global' venture firm, two mid-market buyout funds — including one established by an experienced team partnering with Farallon Capital — and a leading Japanese private equity platform active across buyouts, PIPEs, and renewables.
