After completing his doctoral studies, I studied at one of the world’s top research hospitals. I worked in the world’s leading laboratory for translational research and development of novel therapeutics in the fields of oncology and neurology with global pharmaceutical companies for the purpose of interdisciplinary basic research and practical cancer treatment. The results of our work have been published in top tier international journals and received awards from the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) etc., and through numerous lectures and seminars, our therapeutic drug is now being used as a blockbuster drug in medical practice around the world. Since I have been involved in drug discovery research, M&A, and business development in the research and business divisions of several major pharmaceutical companies. During that time, I led the establishment and operation of several innovative startup bioventures with top venture capitalists in Boston, Silicon Valley, and Europe, from research management to investment based in the U.S. I have also served on the advisory boards of venture capital funds. I have spent much of my time in the United States. I have spent much of his time in the U.S. and have developed a distinctive and rich business experience as a Ph.D. scientist and life science business investor for over 20 years. I also hold a faculty position in a graduate program and is promoting new Japan-U.S. business activities that contribute to the creation of future therapeutics and treatments by utilizing his unique career of understanding, overcoming, and fostering the differences between Japan and the U.S. and my multifaceted perspective of academia and business. I would like to devote myself to the true potential flowering of the soil for startups and the environment for the creation of therapeutics to turn around.
