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.
