Create Empathy, Expand TerritoryBellesalle Shinjuku Grand Conference Center
ABOUT
Outline of the event
What is the Hyper Interdisciplinary Conference?
Hyper Interdisciplinary Conference is a place where researchers, large corporations, small factories, and venture companies, regardless of their field or industry, can fuse their knowledge and technology through discussion, identify new research themes and issues that humanity needs to face, and promote research together.
Twelve years have passed since the reorganization of the Society from its predecessor, Hyper Interdisciplinary Research Meeting. It has become the one and only place where diverse researchers and companies with their own expertise and passion can come together to form interdisciplinary teams to take on new challenges, inspired by what they would not have thought of doing on their own, in order to envision a future that they could not envision alone and get closer to a place that they could not reach. However, the next step is not created simply by gathering together and enjoying different fields. At Leave a Nest, we value the concept of "creating" rather than "looking for" empathy as the first communication to make friends in different fields. We will create a mechanism to make the two-day event such that participants can create something they can share with someone else and leave with a promise to take the next small action.

Short Pitches by Researchers and Venture Companies "Hyper Interdisciplinary Splash"
The name "Splash" comes from the meaning of the word "splash," which means "a splash of water or other substance." Researchers and venture capitalists give 90-second pitches to the audience, telling them what they want to do and what they are looking for from the participants. The aim is to find passionate researchers and to use their pitches as inspiration to come up with new ideas.

Our lives are supported by "ecosystem services," which are the blessings derived from biodiversity, such as food and water supplies and climate stability, which are essential for human survival and a good quality of life. Proposals have been made around the world to realize nature positivity, and more concrete and practical action plans are needed. However, methods for managing and measuring biodiversity have not been standardized, and there are still few examples of verification, especially in real environments. In addition, we believe it is important to train the next generation of human resources to ensure that efforts are not transitory. Therefore, in the TASUKI-TASUKI project, the next generation and companies are working together to evaluate aquatic biodiversity in the field of rivers and Lake Biwa, which are connected to Tokyo Bay. In this session, we will introduce practical examples and discuss the development of assessment techniques and standards.session release
