Bridging Generations for a Sustainable Future: Global Village Yurakucho House x Investcorp

2025-04-30
Introduction
In the face of today’s global climate crisis, fostering meaningful connections between influential industry leaders and younger generations is more important than ever. Global Village Yurakucho House is proud to be at the heart of this mission. Most recently, we hosted an engaging Company Meetup in Tokyo, where students had the rare opportunity to exchange ideas directly with representatives from the multinational firm Investcorp.
Getting to Know Investcorp

Investcorp is a leading global investment manager with a strong focus on sustainable finance. Through its investment strategies, the firm actively supports the global transition to a net-zero economy, addressing critical issues such as decarbonization, energy transition, and water treatment.

Headquartered in Bahrain, Investcorp maintains offices around the world in countries such as China, India, Qatar, the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore, and Saudi Arabia and Japan. According to its 2024 Sustainability Report, Investcorp continues to be a driving force in tackling climate-related challenges across its portfolio.

Our Partnership

Global Village Yurakucho House and Investcorp have developed a strong and ongoing partnership. Our collaboration was first spotlighted during the ESG & Sustainability Conference held on March 14th at the Tokyo International Forum. At this event, Investcorp empowered our student volunteers by entrusting them with coordination and management roles — a gesture that not only showcased their commitment to youth engagement but also strengthened our mutual trust.

This partnership laid the groundwork for our recent event, which proved to be both inspiring and rewarding for all participants.

Key Insights from the Event

The event brought together a vibrant mix of attendees, including professionals in sustainable finance and participants representing over 10 different nationalities. Notably, we were honored to welcome Mr. Shunsuke Tanahashi, Head of Investcorp Japan, and Ms. Michiyo Morisawa, Head of Japan, Global Networks and Outreach at the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI).

Their presence, along with contributions from other leading experts in the field, created a dynamic atmosphere for meaningful discussions and professional exchange. Attendees from Global Village Yurakucho House had the invaluable opportunity to network deeply while enjoying delicious food and drinks in a warm and collaborative setting.
