Hello,
We are moving forward with the phased sequencing of NextRock Investment Group, a multi-platform investment and operating group built around disciplined capital formation, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, acquisition execution, and milestone-based platform development.
The group is being structured around the launch of SVCV, Inc., NextRock & Co, and NextLife Insurance Group. Our execution plan includes joint ventures, a unique acquisition model, bespoke fund co-management mandates, multiple co-investment fundraising vehicles, outside GP partners, strategic sponsors, and employee ownership programs.
Unless otherwise stated, all third-party companies, institutions, advisors, investors, brands, agencies, celebrities, and strategic sponsors referenced below are target counterparties, evaluation candidates, or part of our strategic universe. As of June 18, 2026, no partnership, acquisition, investment commitment, advisory mandate, endorsement, sponsorship, or formal engagement should be implied unless separately announced by NextRock Investment Group.
Please find our latest corporate updates below:
We are rebranding and updating our platform trade names from *NEXTRock** to NextRock & Co, and from SVCV Global to SVCV, Inc.
* We have defined our corporate structure as follows:
NextRock Investment Group = parent group
NextRock & Co = investment / operating platform
SVCV, Inc. = culture / consumer / media platform
NextLife Insurance Group = insurance platform
*We have defined our financing architecture for the next 36 months as follows:
Phase 1 — Bridge & Seed
Phase 2 — Anchor Sponsors
Phase 3 — Strategic Partners
Phase 4 — Insurance & IP
Phase 5 — Credit & Hedge Assets
Phase 6 — Flagship Acquisitions I
Phase 7 — Flagship Acquisitions II
Our chosen platform headquarters location is *Tokyo**, where we plan to establish our first operating headquarters. We also intend to operate smaller offices in New York City, Miami, Dubai, Bermuda, and Hong Kong as the group expands.
*The focused regions for the cultural hold firm will be China, Japan, South East Asia and Saudi Arabia for the first two years.
*Equity distributions will be made to partners on an incrementally order.
* Our initial core assets will focus on a hedged balance sheet, reinsurance, and intellectual property. Over the next two years, we plan to expand into annuities, life insurance management, credit assets, consumer platforms, media, fashion, and entertainment through joint ventures and strategic partnerships.
We expect to begin our bridge and seed fundraising process on *June 22, 2026**, with the initial fundraising period expected to run through August 30, 2026. Early investor access will be focused on Japanese, Chinese, and strategic investors.
* The bridge and seed funding structure is expected to include partner-level support. Later institutional vehicles may include letters of credit, credit enhancement, or other institutional support structures, subject to final documentation, legal review, and institutional partner approvals.
* We are preparing to enter definitive acquisition agreements with an initial group of 10 small brands across media, marketing, fashion, and music within the next several weeks.
* Our acquisition and fundraising strategy will operate under strict timeframes. The first acquisition round will focus on small to mid-sized companies, the second round will focus on Japanese companies and strategic regional assets, and the final round will focus on larger flagship brands and platform-defining opportunities.
We have launched front-end prototypes for several anchor platforms and brands, including *GOGOPAPA**, our music and video streaming platform; RODEO, our online marketplace; and SVC, our fashion house.
We plan to introduce approximately *30 founding partners** across the group on a phased basis, including general partners, managing partners, cultural partners, brand partners, and platform-specific operating partners.
We are moving forward with the planning process for a partial public listing of *SVCV, Inc.** on the Tokyo PRO Market, intended for professional and institutional investors.
* We expect to announce two interim CEOs in the coming days: one for Japan and one for the Americas. These interim appointments are intended to support the bridge funding process, investor relations, early execution, and senior leadership negotiations.
We are currently completing the selection process for our corporate vendor mandates for the next 18 months. Our evaluation universe includes *Cambridge Associates, Goldman Sachs, BlackRock, Blackstone, Ferchurch Advisors, LionTree Advisors, Rothschild & Co, FGS Global, Sunny Side Up Group, TMF Group, Japan Investment Adviser, Nomura, J.P. Morgan, CSC Global, UBS, Latham & Watkins, Mayer Brown**, and others.
We plan to hold our first investor presentation events for a small and select group of investors, partners, and acquisition counterparties in *Tokyo and Dubai** over the next several weeks.
Our proposed acquisition model is based on a *50/50 joint venture structure** with revenue sharing, intellectual property rights, and distribution rights.
Our proposed co-management model is a *10/90 co-managing partnership structure** with an institutional GP partner and outsourced chief investment officer. Target partners include BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, Blackstone, Cambridge Associates, and other leading institutional platforms. Under this model, the institutional GP partner would control, access, and manage the majority of raised capital directly, while NextRock Investment Group’s general and managing partners would initially manage smaller, pre-approved allocations over a two- to three-year period.
* This structure is designed to allow NextRock Investment Group to build operating credibility, institutional oversight, governance discipline, and investment track record before assuming broader capital management responsibilities.
Our acquisition targets for *SVCV** include consumer, entertainment, fashion, media, cultural commerce, and intellectual property assets.
Our acquisition targets for *NextRock & Co** and NextLife Insurance Group include reinsurance platforms, life insurance companies, family offices, insurance brokers, credit platforms, and related financial services businesses.
For our Phase 2 fundraising round, expected between *August and October 2026**, we plan to meet investors in person across key markets in order to build long-term alignment with our early capital partners.
We are completing our legal and operational structuring, including incorporation and platform development across *Japan, Guernsey, the Cayman Islands, New York, and the British Virgin Islands**, subject to local regulatory requirements and licensing approvals.
We are evaluating *Globant** and Accenture to support the development of our anchor brands and digital platforms over the coming months.
In fashion and entertainment, we intend to work with agencies and advisors such as *KCD, CAA, and WME** to support brand strategy, talent partnerships, ambassador programs, and entertainment industry development.
We expect to distribute *6 board of advisor seats** across the group over the next several months for qualified strategic, institutional, cultural, and operating partners.
The group’s activities for the next three months include:
Entering a definitive acquisition agreement with 10 companies
Raising $50M in capital through different funds and vehicles
Establishing cross jurisdiction banking and legal structure
Negotiating and signing mandates with the corporate partners
Contract negotiations with general and managing partners, celebrities for house ambassadors, etc.
Hosting a small investor presentation event at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Tokyo
Acquiring a commercial building in Tokyo for the group’s headquarter
Assigning board members
We expect to announce the initial team, first fund closing, and first acquisitions by the end of August 2026.
More updates will follow in the coming weeks.
