Z Venture Capital (ZVC) has invested in Linc Inc., a company that provides end-to-end support for foreign talent—from job placement to post-hire training and development. Following our lead role in the previous round, ZVC also led this latest round.

When we first met Shiyo Naka (Founder & CEO) two years ago, Linc was still in the early conceptual stage of what would become “Linc Global Hub (GloHub)”—an all-in-one platform designed to streamline hiring, candidate management, and retention support for foreign talent.

Since then, I’ve had many conversations with Shiyo about his vision and the product. About a year and a half ago, right after the beta launch of GloHub, we came in as the lead investor.

Since then, I’ve continued to work closely with Shiyo and the Linc team as an external board director. It’s been inspiring to see how they constantly test new ideas, take bold steps, and keep improving. That mindset has fueled Linc’s rapid growth. They’ve built strong momentum—from forming a strategic partnership with en Japan to onboarding major enterprise clients, and attracting top talent to support their next phase of growth.

Even now, I cherish the conversations we have beyond the regular monthly board meetings—about the future of Linc, and the kind of impact they want to make in the world. Watching Linc’s KPIs grow day by day, I’m more confident than ever in the potential of GloHub and this latest investment.

Honestly, there’s no reason not to invest. It’s as simple as that.

Linc’s journey is still just getting started, and ZVC is all in on supporting what comes next.
