Business Advisory

Leverage advises new and existing businesses in Asia on cross-border deal sourcing, commercial strategy, sales-channel development and international business alliances and joint-ventures. Through our executive search and recruitment business, we’ve developed a vast network of C-level business operators and sophisticated investors that are interested in expanding their businesses and portfolios through acquisitions, joint-ventures, and strategic alliances. We help Japanese companies looking to expand their businesses overseas, as well as foreign enterprises interested to develop their services and products in Japan.

Track Record
