The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has published the results report and pamphlet from its fiscal year 2024 "Survey on Sustainable Industry-Academia Collaboration to Maximize Social Implementation Opportunities for Research Results." The ministry emphasizes the importance of industry-academia collaboration organizations in fulfilling universities' mission to provide research results to society and contribute to social development.
This survey compiled the overall picture and key points for promoting industry-academia collaboration processes to maximize social implementation opportunities for research results, along with the human resources, mechanisms, and systems necessary for their implementation. It aims to realize sustainable initiatives related to the social implementation of university research results.
Specific deliverables include the results report (scheduled for later publication) and the pamphlet "University Research Results Social Implementation Guidebook - Aiming for Sustainable Initiatives" (PDF: 2.0MB). The pamphlet has already been published and provides practical guidelines for practitioners and stakeholders involved in industry-academia collaboration at universities.
