Soft Bank Chief Executive Officer Masayoshi Son wants to propel his group towards what he calls Soft Bank 2.0; in India he could be gearing for Soft Bank 3.0. The Japanese telecom and internet conglomerate is gearing up for a third innings in India, after failing to make a mark with its first and second set of investments in India.
With a new $100-billion technology fund, Soft Bank is likely to go after market leaders (No. 1 or 2 players) in each market, say analysts. ‘‘This fund gives it the ability to buy into any market leadership deal across the world,” says managing partner of a Mumbai-based venture capital (VC) firm.
