Academia, industry is calling!

A panel discussion, "Academia, Industry is Calling!" will be held within the Osaka Conference 2021 (Saturday, April 24, 2021) of the Society of Transdisciplinary Research, organized by RIVANES. (session partner: Kobe Medical Industry Development Organization).

　In these uncertain times, academia's research capabilities should be utilized in industry. In Japan, however, there is still a large gap between academia and industry, and the influx of human resources from academia to industry has been a failure.
　In this session, therefore, a large company with strengths in R&D, a startup, and a startup supporter will discuss specifically what can be done when doctoral personnel join their company or the community they are supporting, in order to envision the world view after human resource mobility occurs. The three people who will take on this topic are Dr. Nakao, President and Representative Director of Takara Bio, which is active globally in the life science field, from research support to industrial application of research results and clinical-related business, and Dr. Yanagisawa, President and Representative Director of CellFiber, a startup that focuses on cell engineering as its core technology, after obtaining his doctoral degree, D., who joined Cell Fiber, a startup with cell engineering as its core technology; and LuidaBio's CEO, Mr. Kono, who exited a biomedical venture based on technology from his graduate laboratory and is now providing hands-on support to other ventures in the same field. D. in the U.S. and joined LIVERNESS, and is a regular observer of trends in academia around the world.
In addition, the session will also introduce examples of doctoral candidates in the Kobe Biomedical Innovation Cluster community, where session partner Kobe Biomedical Innovation Cluster Promotion Organization serves as a core support organization, as well as future human resource mobility models.

We will have a program of discussions among researchers, start-ups, and large companies from a variety of perspectives, not limited to the themes of this session.
