This dissertation addresses four exploratory research questions. (1) How has the Japanese venture capital (VC) industry evolved and in particular how has its evolution differed from the evolution of the U.S. VC industry? (2) What are the factors that have contributed to creating differences in the Japanese VC industry from that of the U.S.? (3) What factors characterize the nature of competition among key Japanese venture capital firms and how will these factors influence the evolution of the Japanese VC industry? (4) What are the implications of this study for stakeholders in the Japanese VC industry, including policy makers, business leaders and VC professionals? The identification of milestones in the evolution of the U.S. VC industry provides a baseline for evaluating the evolutionary stage of the Japanese VC industry. To explore the structure and competition in the Japanese VC industry, case studies of 17 leading Japanese VC firms were conducted. In summary, this study concluded that the Japanese VC industry is still an infant industry and is struggling to develop. The study found that several factors (insufficient social recognition about VC and the role of VC as a social financial system, undeveloped equity markets for new ventures and small businesses, lack of technological knowledge spillover and entrepreneurial challenge, lack of government support and burdening with the past successful industry systems) have created obstacles for developing the Japanese VC industry as an efficient social financial system. Two leading affiliated venture capital firms (AFVCFs), JAFCO and NIF, and some of the newly formed independent venture capital firms (IDVCFs) have adopted an operating model similar to the standard model in the U.S. VC industry. These firms may become key players in the evolution of the Japanese VC industry. However, the VC industry in Japan faces challenges from traditional social values and from the nature of the Japanese economic system, which places a high value on reliability, history, and tradition. Such values in the socio-economic system definitely have influenced the development of the VC industry, and will continue to do so in future.
