Gobi Partners Expands into Japan

Gobi Partners, one of Asia’s most active venture capital firms, has expanded into Japan through JR East’s TAKANAWA GATEWAY Link Scholars’ Hub (LiSH) as a Global Network Partner.

LiSH, located in TAKANAWA GATEWAY CITY and linked directly to Tokyo International Airport, opened in May 2025 as part of JR East’s smart-city development.

The hub facilitates collaboration between startups, corporates, and researchers on technologies and business models relevant to urban life.

Thomas G. TsaoThomas G. Tsao

said Thomas G. Tsao, Co-Founder and Chair of Gobi Partners.

Gobi’s entry into Japan follows years of regional collaboration.

The firm previously co-hosted the Malaysia-Japan Innovation & Capital Forum with the Tokyo Stock Exchange and JETRO.

It also partnered with Cross Capital to channel Japanese investment into Southeast Asia’s digital economy.

Its portfolio includes Southeast Asian companies backed by Japanese corporates, such as JULO (Saison Group), CompAsia (OSK SBI), iStore iSend (Yamato Transport), Glints (Persol Group), Funding Societies (Cool Japan Fund), Animoca Brands (Sumitomo Corp, Kodansha), and Carsome (MUFG, Daiwa).

The move aligns with Japan’s Startup Development Five-Year Plan (2022–2027), which targets 100,000 startups and 100 unicorns through cross-border collaboration.

In 2024, venture funding in Japan rose 35%, while Southeast Asia attracted over US$5 billion in early-stage capital.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) vs Little Pepe (LILPEPE): Which Meme Coin Will Take the Crown from Dogecoin (DOGE)?

Shiba Inu (SHIB) vs Little Pepe (LILPEPE): Which Meme Coin Will Take the Crown from Dogecoin (DOGE)?

The post Shiba Inu (SHIB) vs Little Pepe (LILPEPE): Which Meme Coin Will Take the Crown from Dogecoin (DOGE)? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Dogecoin has been the face of meme coins for a long time. From Elon Musk tweets to a robust community, DOGE has managed to stay alive. But in 2025, things appear slightly different. Will Shiba Inu keep pursuing Dogecoin, or will new contender Little Pepe pass them both by? Dogecoin (DOGE): Still the Benchmark Dogecoin is trading just above $0.2452, up 10.63% over the past week. That steady climb shows why DOGE still matters: it has the liquidity, the listings, and the recognition that few meme tokens can match. Analysts see its price grinding higher into year-end, supported by altcoin momentum and ETF launches in the U.S. But here’s the thing: DOGE is no longer a scrappy underdog. With a market cap already in the tens of billions, turning $100 into $10,000 here is nearly impossible. It’s the Bitcoin of meme coins: reliable, liquid, and still iconic, but its days of 1,000× gains are behind it. Shiba Inu (SHIB): Big Name, Slowing Engine Shiba Inu sits at $0.00001349 with a market cap of $7.6 billion. It’s clawed back momentum with a 3.98% monthly surge, and analysts project a further 9.26% weekly gain to $0.00001418. Token burns and the expansion of Shibarium, its Layer-2 solution, keep the ecosystem alive. That said, SHIB’s size is also its weakness. Even with whales accumulating another 62 billion tokens, growth projections hover in the 400%–500% range, which is impressive but pales in comparison to what early buyers saw in 2021. SHIB is in the odd position of being too big to vanish, but too large to repeat its breakout magic. Little Pepe (LILPEPE): The New Challenger SHIB grew on pure hype, but LILPEPE comes with real infrastructure. The project is building an Ethereum-compatible Layer-2 network designed for meme tokens, with near-zero fees, sniper-bot resistance, and…
