    What is HIC?<\/h2><\/div>\n

    \u3000Research has always been a major driving force for the constant creation of new things in the world. This power will be more strongly demanded in the future. We believe that Hyper Interdisciplinary Communication (HIC) is important to create new knowledge that transcends the boundaries of disciplines.
    \n<\/span>\u3000There are numerous fields of research that are simultaneously deepening and differentiating. In society, there are many issues that cannot be solved without combining the various types of knowledge generated from research. In a society where knowledge is diversifying and issues are becoming more complex, we will continue to create new disciplines and methods to solve social issues by integrating knowledge through Hyper Interdisciplinary Communication.<\/span><\/p>\n

    02<\/span>

    It is not only the field of research that is crossed<\/h2><\/div>\n

    The term \"different fields\" in the HIC does not only refer to the major fields of the Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research. It includes a wide range of meanings, such as different generations, different jobs, and different experiences in their careers.
    \nWhether in academia, a company, or a craftsman at a local factory, I believe that all people who have discovered something through trial and error by formulating a hypothesis are researchers. Even if they do not identify themselves as researchers, they all have such knowledge.
    \nBy bringing together such \"different fields\" with different \"knowledge\" of technologies, issues, experiences, networks, know-how, and pathways to social implementation, and by integrating this knowledge for the future of humanity, a new world will open up.<\/p>\n

    03<\/span>

    \"Knowledge Sharing\" and \"Vector Dissemination.\"<\/h2><\/div>\n

    \u3000At the CONFERENCE, FORUM, and SUMMIT, which are the embodiment of HIC, each specialist brings his\/her knowledge to share with the participants. The balance between \"open\" and \"closed\" is the most difficult part. However, it is extremely important for the future development of science and technology to understand this difficulty and still be open to the public.
    \n<\/span>\u3000We then place emphasis on communicating the vector of \"this is what I want to do. By doing so, empathy spreads, and the seeds of new things are naturally born.
    \n<\/span>With this in mind, the HIC has spread to various regions of Japan and even overseas, resulting in numerous joint projects.<\/span><\/p>\n
