The Policy Speech by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe as of January 22, 2016

Governmental Policy for Innovation

To foster innovation ～from basic research to practical use and commercialization～

Open Innovation!

The most innovation friendly country in the world

• 5th Science and Technology Basic Plan (2016-2020) - Council for Science, Technology and Innovation

Tsukuba participates in all these three programmes

1)COI Programme (Center of Innovation, 2013-2022)

- Backcasting Approach - Under One Roof - Project Leader (Industry)

2)SIP Programme (Cross-ministerial Strategic Innovation Promotion, 2014-2018) - Cross-program beyond the ministries and fields - Select Directors for each program (PD)

3)ImPACT Programe (Impulsing PAradigm Change through Technologies, 2014-2018) - Promoting of high risk, high-impact R&D

The research investment for practical use

• Large-Scale Innovation Programs

Key points of Tsukuba’s Strategies

Backcasting: Start with future vision and social needs →Imagine an ideal society at the starting point and

subsequently set R&D plans to realize

Under One Roof →Establish an innovation platform where researchers and companies can work on R&D together

Optimal team formation by management function →Lead to commercialization promptly and accurately by

management of marketing, funding, etc.

16


Summary

Tsukuba is center of Innovation in Japan

Create new value from activity of TGI and TIA

New collaboration from Tsukuba to the world
