Yes you can get a visa for it. I'll leave the decision of whether to set
up a kabushiki or yuugen kaisha to you, but once you've done that you
just tramp down to the immigration bureau and apply for shikaku henkou.
If you will hold the daihyouken of the company, apply for the toushi
keiei (the visa I have) - if not, just apply for jinbun chishiki/kokusai
gyoumu or engineer's visa depending on what kind of work *you* will be
doing within the company (as distinct to what the company does).
The requirements will be spelt out (in gruesome detail) at immigration,
especially if you applying for toushi keiei. Allow at least 12 weeks -
they won't be in any rush.
