UMI undertakes equity investments in the chemical and material science fields, which were considered difficult in the past due to the need for professional expertise and insights. We provide a platform for the creation of new businesses, connecting not only chemical and material companies, but a broad range of other user industries as well. When managing its funds, UMI will undertake investment activities in keeping with its founding principles, and in accordance with the following six basic policies.
