There are many different types of start-up support facilities, not only in the private and public sectors, but also in different regions. It is difficult to give a uniform definition of the differences.
This office is the university collaboration office of “NINEJP,” a network of nine nationwide platforms commissioned by the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) to “nurture university startups that will change the world. If you ask us about the details of your research results, we will be able to introduce you to the relevant support organizations and programs that are available to you.
In general, when commercializing the results of research conducted at a university, utilizing a support facility attached to the same university may have various advantages, such as streamlining the entry and selection process and providing smooth support after the project is adopted. In addition, if non-academics are able to use a support facility attached to a university, they may also benefit from the infrastructure of the university. Therefore, you need to choose the facility that best suits your research results and intellectual property.
The level of support for global expansion will vary depending on the nature and extent of the consultation, the expected partner country, the scale of revenues, etc., as well as the availability of consultation services.
We would like to confirm if there is a facility that can provide such support after hearing the facts such as what kind of research results you have and how they have been patented, as well as your vision of what kind of business you would like to conduct by utilizing the intellectual property.
