Fenox VC invests in Japan's Dream Link Entertainment

Details of the the transaction were not disclosed but the deal will see DLE set up its first American branch, DLE America, in California this month. Fenox VC, which typically backs entrepreneurs in North America as they expand into Asian and European markets, will help the company establish its American presence.

DLE established ties outside Japan with Taiwanese television stations earlier this year. It wants to take its "fast animation" business model of mass-producing high-quality animation with a fast turnaround into the North American market. This will involve exporting its existing content and producing animation for North American television and film.

DLE is known in Japan for the series "Eagle Talon," an Adobe Flash cartoon created by Ryo Ono. DLE America intends to provide a one-stop shop for clients who require original multimedia design, development, production and distribution as part of a business marketing solution.

In a statement on the DLE website, Anis Uzzaman, CEO of Fenox VC, said the company's business model has enormous global potential and that he was pleased to support its expansion.
