His 91 years life overlapped the process of the Japanese modernization or industrialization. The first half of this paper draws a bird’s-eye view of Japan’s industrialization process including proto-industrialization, primitive accumulation, industrial revolution, and heavy and chemical industrialization. And, the latter half analyzes three types of entrepreneurs had played important roles in the process, those were, owner managers, salaried managers, and investor managers. Yataroh Iwasaki, the founder of Mitsubishi zaibatsu, was a type of owner manager, and Hikojiroh Nakamigawa, a reformer of Mitsui zaibatsu, was that of salaried manager. Eiichi Shibusawa represented the third type entrepreneurs, investor managers. This paper also examines reciprocal actions among three types of entrepreneurs.
