Rakuten, Japan’s largest e-commerce retailer, has been strengthening its content firepower with the acquistion of Viki video streaming site in September and a strategic partnership to license its video content to Baidu last week.
In November, Pinterest launched in Japanese as part of global expansion. The image sharing site received $100 million funding from Rakuten in 2012.
The recent investments underscore the e-commerce giant’s commitment in content, which one of its global marketing execs concur.
Rakuten is also eyeing expansion into Southeast Asia by setting up a regional headquarters in Singapore early this year as it expects high growth in markets like Indonesia, the Philippines, and Vietnam.
