Polaris Capital Group led a JPY4.5bn Series D funding round in Stockmark.

Polaris Capital Group, a private equity fund management company, led a JPY4.5bn Series D funding round in Stockmark, a natural language processing company. "Since starting the company, I have always believed that Japan could produce products of a globally competitive standard in the software field, and I feel that the Japanese ecosystem as a whole is just one step away from achieving this. We are fortunate to have Polaris, which has extensive hands-on experience with Japanese technology companies, including ERP/SaaS, join us. With Polaris' capital support, we hope to further invest in and refine the core technology of generative AI, achieving a discrete leap in standards," Kosuke Arima, Stockmark Director and CTO.
