continued expansion in Japan, as well as the firm’s broader
regional strategy across Asia.
With over four decades of leadership experience, Mr. Fujimori is

country’s evolving digital landscape and its critical role in the
global economy.
Mr. Fujimori currently serves as Chairman of Oracle Japan and

Japan and Senior Vice President of General Electric. He spent 25
years at General Electric in various CEO roles, including GE
Plastics, GE Healthcare Asia, and GE Money Asia.
Mr. Fujimori holds a bachelor’s degree in engineering from the
University of Tokyo and an MBA from the Tepper School of Business

Trustees.
“We are excited to welcome Mr. Fujimori to DigitalBridge,” said
Justin Chang, Senior Managing Director and Head of Asia at
DigitalBridge. “Mr. Fujimori’s strategic insight and leadership,
combined with his vast experience, will be invaluable as we
continue to scale our presence in Japan and pursue new
opportunities in the digital infrastructure sector.”
“I am thrilled to join DigitalBridge and contribute to the
firm’s impressive growth in Japan,” said Mr. Fujimori. “Japan is
one of the most important digital infrastructure markets in the
Asia-Pacific region, and DigitalBridge’s innovative approach
positions the firm to be a key player in this critical market. I
look forward to supporting its efforts in delivering value to both
investors and the customers we serve.”
Mr. Fujimori’s appointment is part of DigitalBridge’s broader
efforts to expand in Japan, where an investment vehicle controlled
by the firm recently completed the acquisition of a majority stake
in JTOWER, reinforcing DigitalBridge’s presence and commitment to
the market. This acquisition further expands the firm’s commitment
to building and scaling digital infrastructure solutions that will
enable Japan to meet its digital transformation goals and drive
