  • Business Development Manager

    Neoteny Inc

    19992000 (1 year)

    During this period I worked for one of Japan`s most interesting entrepreneurs and investors Joi Ito at Digital Garage and his other company Neoteny Inc. Digital Garage is an operator of internet start up companies and Neoteny is an early stage venture capital company. Working for Digital Garage and then to help Neoteny`s Portfolio companies during these exciting times taught me so much about entrepreneurship and venture capital investing and business development and it really opened my eyes to a new world of finance. Without a doubt, this was my foundational experience on both sides of the entrepreneurial adventure and I remain profoundly grateful to Joi Ito and his team for the opportunity to learn and grow.
