As a member of the startup team, we commit to day-to-day execution, working together to bring the venture to life and achieve a successful exit.

BUSINESS MODEL

Company Creation Model
In Japan, startups have long been considered difficult to succeed.
We believe a key factor is the lack of true “0→1” capability.
This is not about generating new ideas, but about the ability to define and
execute a winning path—from development to commercialization and exit.
For more than a decade, Sanamedi has focused on building this capability.
Practical Insight &
Strategic Execution
Through three core pillars—in-house development, investment, and consulting—we have cultivated the following capabilities.
Intelligence (Fuel) 
Practical insight including knowledge, experience, regulatory understanding, development know-how, and the ability to assess opportunities
Resilience (Engine) 
The ability to execute and sustain business operations from development to exit
Create new businesses
from scratch in-house and
launch startups
We are pioneering a new model: building ventures from the ground up internally
before launching them as startups.

Beyond development, we rapidly execute the key elements required for commercialization in parallel――
including business planning, fundraising, partnership design, and organizational setup.
By increasing the speed of both decision-making and execution, we drive momentum in business development.
This model enables us to continuously deliver high-probability ventures to market.
