AI Reasoning: Found Terumo Corporation established a Corporate Venture Capital arm ‘Terumo Ventures’ with announcement dated August 6, 2024. While the press release does not list specific startup investments on that date, Terumo announced intention to invest $75M over five years and has ongoing venture activity. The most recent identifiable venture activity is the establishment of Terumo Ventures on 2024-08-06. Calculating time since that activity to the reference point gives less than 15 months; however, additional public coverage shows ongoing CVC formation and announcements in 2024 indicating active involvement. No later specific startup investment date in 2025 was found; using establishment date August 6, 2024 places the last known venture action within 15 months. Given Terumo’s explicit CVC launch and commitments, classify as very-active.
