Monozukuri Ventures

We invest in 10-15 hardware startups per year, with a typical check ranging from USD 100K to 300K at first, with a chance to follow investment up to USD 1M accumulate. We’re focused on funding entrepreneurs in the fastest growing industries: robotics, AI, clean energy, wearables, space tech, IoT, healthcare, smart home and more. We provide financing services such as equity investment and debt financing. For example, we invest in common stock, preferred stock, convertible note, SAFE and KISS. We make investments to help our startup founders cover prototyping fees. We co-invest with incubators, accelerators and VCs, and have an efficient due diligence process that will result in funding a first round of manufacturing. You can raise capital with us if you are a seed/early stage hardware startup incorporated either in the US, Canada or in Japan.
