DI’s Works Vol.6

Senior Executive Officer Masahito Ishikawa x Executive Officer Taiji Yoshida - Unraveling DI’s Industry Productions: The Current State and Future Perspectives of Social Impact Bonds (SIB) in Resolving Social Issues.

At DI, we're dedicated to actualizing our mission of "Creating Businesses That Change Society" by engaging in industrial production to develop new businesses. In doing so, we have been advancing our first project utilizing the mechanism of Social Impact Bonds (SIB), a new approach for resolving social issues faced by national and local governments, which harnesses the expertise and funding of private enterprises, to achieve results through outcome-based implementation. We spoke with Masahito Ishikawa, who has been driving the first project, and Taiji Yoshida, who is currently striving to establish SIB schemes with seven municipalities nationwide in Japan, to learn about the current state and prospects of SIB.

Dream Incubator Inc. (DI) is a business production company that offers consulting services for major corporations on a wide range of growth strategies and supports the establishment of new businesses. Drawing on our expertise in business and venture capital investments, we offer support for client business investments and provide M&A assistance as part of our services. In this context, perspectives were shared by Mr. Masami Hamada, responsible for M&A execution support, and Mr. Katsuhiko Handa, who previously oversaw incubation investments and currently provides support for business investments.

In recent years, there has been a noticeable trend towards enhancing school curricula with a focus on "career education." In line with this, third-year students at Oyugakuen Joshi Junior High School have been actively immersing themselves in activities centered around the theme of "occupation."

This endeavor culminated in the realization of a workplace visit, as the school's enthusiasm to offer students an insight into "business production" converged with DI's commitment to contribute to the future of children.

Makoto Miyauchi, who took on the role of Global Head of Dream Incubator Inc.’s (DI) Third Division in April 2023, leads a diverse organization. He defines the fusion of strategic consulting and incubation as "DI-ism" and promotes "glocalization" across various target countries, primarily in Asia. He is dedicated to business production activities that transcend boundaries in various aspects. In this interview, he will discuss the current state and prospects of the Third Division.
