Gobi Partners has expanded into Japan by joining JR East’s Takanawa Gateway Link Scholars’ Hub (LiSH) as a global network partner.

The venture firm manages nearly US$2 billion across more than 20 funds and aims to bridge Japan’s industrial and technological strengths with Southeast Asia’s entrepreneurial energy.

LiSH is located in Tokyo’s Takanawa Gateway City and is part of a smart-city project connecting startups, corporates, and researchers.

Gobi has a track record of Japan–Southeast Asia collaboration.

It co-hosted the Malaysia–Japan Innovation & Capital Forum with the Tokyo Stock Exchange and JETRO, and partnered with Cross Capital to channel Japanese investment into Southeast Asia’s digital economy.
