| Message | I would like to create more and more projects to create new products and services and implement them in society by linking the research findings of the researchers with the business needs of private companies gathered in the SAC (Smart Aging College, co-creation of smart aging from 2009) Project that we operate. I get consultations from companies that are suffering from the damages due to the Covid-19 and companies that want to make use of their products for the countermeasures against the Covid-19. Some are already collaborating with researchers from multiple departments. When I received such a consultation, I was searching researchers who could handle it through individual channels. However, I would like to consult with the researchers at the base, such as "I have such a consultation" and "Are there any researchers who can do this?". The government is diverging our blood tax because of an emergency, but I think we should increase the means to solve the problems due to the Covid-19 by private sector-led business and use the blood tax to support it. Academia's knowledge is indispensable for the creation of private-sector-led businesses related to the Covid-19, and we would like to be able to provide that knowledge from our bases. |
