Turning the Chaos of Startups into Structured Success
Joshua Barry
My journey in the startup ecosystem spans over 25 years, during which I have been founding or investing in startups, honing a keen acumen for identifying and nurturing innovation. At ZAIKO, I applied this expertise focusing on launching and scaling a global platform that specializes in live streaming, fan engagement, and ticketing. ZAIKO was listed as one of the top 10 startups in Japan in 2022.

Beyond my work with ZAIKO, I am an active investor and advisor for a variety of technology startups and VCs both in Japan and internationally. My investment portfolio includes dynamic companies like 77hz and Devil Craft. I apply my extensive experience in strategy, product development, and growth hacking to support these companies in realizing their ambitions and reaching their full potential.
What I Do
I guide startups to achieve their subsequent funding milestones and provide venture capitalists with strategic guidance for portfolio company growth, capital raising, and founder evaluation and introductions.
