Message from the president

As a specialized entrepreneurial management company, M-out Inc. creates a brand-new industry though the market-out business concept.
Removing the risk of 'venture' from venture business and leading the way to success.

In the near future, we may no longer use the word 'venture business' for entrepreneurial startups. The word 'venture' literally means taking risks, putting someone or something valuable at risk. It is quite true that an entrepreneur who succeeds in launching a business from scratch has to take many risks in terms of financial and human resources. However, I believe a venture which takes risks and tries new things crates a brand new industry and revitalize the stagnated Japanese economy. In particular, a venture based on market-out concept will grow to become the core companies and industries that open up new dimensions to the market system.

In this context, I intend to begin a new corporate structure that eliminates the word 'venture' from 'venture business,' so that we can contribute to the success of market-out ventures which are needed by consumers and Japanese economy. I call this new corporate structure 'specialized entrepreneurial management company,' which nurtures market-out ventures and leads them smoothly to business successes. While maintaining an innovation, high-speed growth, and flexibility of a venture, we reduce wastes and risks involved in a start up stage with our financial and human resources as well as our management know-how.

Our mission as a specialized entrepreneurial management company

Our mission is to create and nurture new enterprises based on market-out concept and launch them into society. Unlike conventional ventures setting their goal at initial public offering, companies developed in M-out Inc aim to grow into such a mega-company that is listed on the first section of Tokyo Stock Exchange and exert a positive influence on the society. Companies that leave the nest at M-out Inc will blossom into new industrial leaders, taking the Japanese economy into a new growth orbit. M-out Inc contributes to the society by vitalizing the Japanese economy and creating new employment opportunities

Our business model

New business begins when an entrepreneur is matched with a business seed in M-out Inc. M-out provides the business with a wide range of supports including finance, humane resources, management know-how and executive training to lead the business to a success. When the business grows to a certain level, M-out will exit from the business in stages by selling a portion of ownership in the stock market or to another company. Dividends on stocks and profits on the sale of stocks will be re-invested in new projects and businesses. This is how we focus our management resources on star-up stage and accumulate management know-how for start-ups.
