A number of these university-aligned funds have also forged alliances with foreign investors in order to create and invest in Japan-focused funds. For example, the University of Tokyo, UTokyo IPC, and Singapore-based Vertex Ventures recently agreed to collaborate on startup development, including investing in Vertex Ventures Japan's Japan Fund I. Traditional VC funds are also beginning to attract foreign investors in Japan, primarily as LPs given the communications challenges. Increasing foreign investment could, over time, lead to larger ticket investments in Japanese startups.",
