History

In 2002, under the slogan of "Be hyperdifferent," a group of like-minded researchers who share their own expertise with others and accept the expertise of others founded the Hyperdifferential Exchange Group.
Later, in 2011, the number of participants and their areas of expertise expanded at an accelerated pace with the participation of recipients of the "Leave a Nest Grant," a research grant for young researchers. The following year, it was reorganized into an academic society.
In addition, numerous venture founders from the TECH PLANTER community, a seed acceleration program for technology ventures, participate. From there, the Super Interdisciplinary Society has become a forum for discussions on all phases of science and technology, from basic research to commercialization.

History
2002

Start of "Hyper Interdisciplinary Exchange Meetings

The "Super Interdisciplinary Exchange Meeting," the predecessor of the Society for Interdisciplinary Research, began in a small café. Graduate students from various specialties gathered to talk about how interesting their research was to their peers in different fields.
2011

"Leave a Nest Grant" confluence.

The number of participants and the number of specialties expanded at an accelerated pace, with the participation of recipients of the "Leave a Nest Grant".

Leave a Nest Grant (2008-)

The "Research Grant Program for Young Researchers" was started with this idea in mind: "Let's stimulate the research activities of young researchers of our generation." This is the reason why we started the Research Grant Program for Young Researchers. Today, with the support of many companies, we continue to support young researchers.
2012

Reorganized as Hyper Interdisciplinary Conference

2014

"TECH PLANTER" meeting

Numerous venture founders from the "TECH PLANTER" community participated. The "TECH PLANTER" community has become a forum for discussions on all phases of science and technology, from basic research to commercialization.

TECH PLANTER (2013-)

Research results generated at universities are not easily implemented in society. TECH PLANTER was launched to solve this problem, and with the support of numerous partners, we are encouraging real-tech ventures to launch their nests.
2015

To hold regional forums

After the first regional meeting held in Okinawa as the Okinawa subcommittee, the Japan Society of Hyperdifferent Fields has since held an increasing number of meetings throughout Japan as regional forums.
2017

Evolution into an International Conference

We have evolved our annual hyperdiscipline conference in Tokyo into this conference, and we now welcome speakers from overseas.
2019

Overseas competitions are now underway.

After expanding overseas for the first time to Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines, the Association of Transdisciplinary Conferences has been expanding its host countries, especially in Southeast Asia.
