Course description

The science and technology in agriculture and engineering studied and researched at the University will be widely returned to society through social implementation through collaborative activities with companies (industry-academia collaboration).　In order to create a future society together with companies, it is important to set goals with a clear focus on targets (exits) with economic and social impact based on future social and industrial needs. This course is offered as a Liberal Arts Global Development Course and is taught by faculty members with practical experience in industry-academia collaboration and open innovation in companies. In this course, guest lecturers from start-up companies will participate in lectures on open innovation, innovation creation processes and ideas in industry-academia collaboration, with the aim of deepening understanding through classroom lectures and group exercises and comprehensively learning about the flow of returning research results to society, The following topics will be covered for beginners. 1. Orientation and understanding of the R&D process in universities and companies 2. Positioning of R&D in career design 3. Strategies and tactics to generate innovation 4. Understanding open innovation and the innovation ecosystem 5. Innovation through agriculture-industry collaboration 6. Current Status and Future Prospects of Open Innovation 7. Current status of agri-bio startups in Japan and abroad 8. Group presentations and summary Scheduled start date: Day 1 (9/1 (Fri.) 3rd and 4th periods) Day 2 (9/2 (Sat.) 3rd, 4th, and 5th periods) Day 3 (9/15 (Fri.) 3rd, 4th, and 5th periods) After the second day, there will be assignment reports for the first through the fifth sessions, due by the start of the lecture on September 15. Google Classroom class code: 6ydrv45

Expected Learning

Autonomy/independence, leadership/coordination skills, knowledge pioneering ability, communication, written expression, presentation, problem exploration/problem solving 1) To understand the process of industry-academia collaboration and open innovation in companies 2) Understand that new business creation requires collaborative work with various stakeholders and that R&D alone is not enough. 3) To be able to draw effective conclusions by thinking, speaking, and discussing independently and autonomously in groups.

Course schedule

Session 1: Orientation, [Lecture] Understanding the R&D process in universities and companies 　　The lecturer will explain how science and technology are implemented in society through examples he has experienced as a researcher and research manager at universities and graduate schools (National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology), research institutes (RIKEN), overseas universities (KTH, Stanford University), and companies (Honda R&D Labs., Yanmar Co., Ltd.). Session 2: [Group work] Positioning of R&D in career design 　　In small groups, participants will share out and have round-table discussions on how R&D in universities and companies will be involved in their career planning. Session 3: [Lecture] Strategies and tactics to create innovation (i.e., dissimilarity) 　　In order for a company to grow, it is necessary not only to evolve normally based on its past growth, but also to change through the acquisition of new technologies and business models, and through the development of new markets and customers. In recent years, in particular, an increasing number of "degrowth" companies have prioritized their essential raison d'etre over quantitative indicators of business scale and economic performance. In this context, this lecture will introduce R&D/business strategies that should be considered for a sustainable society, industry-government-academia-industry collaboration as a tactic, and the process of new business creation. Session 4: [Lecture] Understanding "open innovation" and "innovation ecosystem 　　In the R&D and innovation process, it is often said that there is a trade-off between quality and time. However, by successfully implementing open innovation and innovation ecosystems, it is possible to trade-on to implement social issues more quickly. Session 5: [Group Work] Innovation through Agricultural-Industrial Collaboration 　　In the future, the world's population is certain to reach nearly 10 billion people by 2050, and solutions to social issues such as food, energy, and the environment that humankind faces will have to wait for no time. Here, small teams will be formed to discuss and present themes on the possibilities of collaboration between agriculture and engineering that will lead to future innovation. Lecture report assignment (for lectures 1-5)　report Due date: 9/15 till 13:00 Session 6: [Tour of corporate facilities and seminar by guests] Understanding the reality of open innovation 　　Deepen understanding of the innovation ecosystem through a tour of open innovation facilities at companies, as well as through questions and discussions on open innovation mechanisms by corporate guest lecturers using the facilities. Session 7: [Guest lecture and group work] The latest status of agri-bio startups in Japan and overseas 　　Innovation in agriculture and biotechnology is not limited to agricultural-industrial collaboration, but has expanded beyond the supply chain to the value chain in areas such as food and beverage, energy, and medicine and health. In addition, representatives of agri-startups active in Japan will be invited as guest lecturers to talk about their daily efforts and challenges toward commercialization, and deepen understanding of startups through questions and discussions. Session 8: Presentation of group work, summary 　　The group work members in the 6th and 7th sessions will summarize and present their findings on innovation through agriculture-industry collaboration. Finally, a question-and-answer session will be held throughout the entire session, followed by a summary. After the second day, there will be assignment reports for the first through the fifth sessions, due by the start of the lecture on September 15.
