Background

About Daisuke Nakayama

I turn selected Japanese products, capabilities and companies into commercially actionable opportunities for GCC markets. I am Founder & CEO of DICE LINK, INC. and lead JGX — the Japan–GCC Transformation Programme. JGX is not a catalogue, an introduction service or conventional export support. We identify and commercially review selected Japanese opportunities, then shape them for GCC-side application through market validation, positioning, pricing and margin design, route-to-market development, partner engagement, negotiation and execution planning. For GCC distributors, operators, family offices and strategic partners, this means access to opportunities with a clearer business case, commercial logic, partner roles and next steps — rather than raw products that the local partner must figure out. My background combines EY advisory experience with more than a decade building DICE LINK across business transformation, new ventures, turnaround and cross-border execution. Our current priority markets are the UAE and Saudi Arabia, initially focused on Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Riyadh. I welcome conversations with GCC-based partners interested in distribution, operating partnerships, strategic collaboration or investment around selected Japanese opportunities.
