Cross-Border Business Support (B2B)

We will leverage the network we have built to support your business.

Cross-Border Business Support (B2B)

I advise and support companies seeking to develop business opportunities between Japan, Switzerland, and Europe.

Whether supporting Japanese companies entering Switzerland and broader European markets, or assisting Swiss and other international companies in establishing a presence in Japan, I draw on more than 30 years of international business experience and a trusted network built over decades.

My approach is not defined by the size of a network, but by the quality and relevance of each connection. The objective is to bring together the right people, companies, and expertise to create meaningful opportunities and tangible business outcomes.

Market Entry & Business Development

I provide practical, hands-on support for companies navigating new markets, with careful consideration of local business practices, regulatory environments, and cultural contexts.

  • Company and organizational establishment, including incorporation and operational setup
  • Market-entry strategy for Japan, Switzerland, and European markets
  • Market analysis, strategic planning, and cultural adaptation for companies entering Japan
  • Formation of joint ventures and strategic partnerships
  • Business matching for sales, procurement, franchise agreements, and other commercial opportunities
  • International expansion support for family-owned businesses

Investment & Finance

Through an established network of financial institutions, investors, and business leaders, I facilitate access to financing, strategic capital, and selected investment opportunities.

In parallel with my advisory activities, I also invest as a principal, with a particular focus on private equity and Pre-IPO technology companies.

  • Introductions to financial institutions and investors, and support with fundraising
  • Principal investment in private equity and Pre-IPO technology opportunities
  • M&A advisory and access to selected investment opportunities

Cross-Cultural Advisory & Communication

Successful cross-border business requires more than commercial expertise. A clear understanding of cultural expectations, decision-making styles, and communication practices is often essential to building lasting trust.

Drawing on extensive experience across Eastern and Western business environments, I advise companies and executives on navigating these differences effectively.

  • Cross-cultural advisory between Eastern and Western business environments
  • Cultural guidance for negotiations and business discussions
  • Support in strengthening communication within organizations and between business partners

Networks & Strategic Alliances

Over the course of my international career, I have developed relationships with trusted professionals, entrepreneurs, investors, executives, and specialist partners across multiple markets.

Where appropriate, I facilitate carefully selected introductions and help create relationships that support long-term business development.

  • Introductions to trusted specialists and business partners
  • Development of strategic alliances
  • Executive search and introductions to senior management talent
  • New business development and promotional support
