It has a strategic partnership with fellow Japanese MMA promotion Jewels.
==History==
When Zuffa, parent company of the UFC, purchased rival promotion Strikeforce in , Shannon Knapp received several calls from female fighters who were afraid of what the future might hold for them in Strikeforce since the UFC had never promoted a women's fight.〔 As the women were calling Knapp for representation, she started looking at the issue and met Janet Martin, and between the two acquired the financial resources needed.
The term ''Invicta'', a Latin word for "invincible and incomparable", was chosen by founders Knapp and Martin since the terms invincible and incomparable are very masculine, but the term appears in the feminine form in Latin, and they thought it was a good description for women's MMA.
