FounderBank helps international teams plan and coordinate entertainment projects involving Japan. We support discussions with Japanese voice talent representatives, creative and production partners, and potential business collaborators — from the first project brief to agreed execution steps.

How We Can Help
1. Japanese Voice Actor Casting & Appearances
For game recordings, anime-related projects, brand campaigns and live conventions. We can help clarify the brief, prepare talent candidate discussions, coordinate with representatives, and review practical considerations such as recording, appearances, timing and intended usage. Casting and appearances depend on agency approval and availability.

3. Japanese IP & Brand Partnerships
For brands and businesses exploring a legitimate collaboration with Japanese entertainment IP. We can help define commercial objectives, identify the permissions and counterparties that may be required, and develop proposals for potential rights holders. We do not promise access to, ownership of, or approval for third-party IP rights.
