Abstract

In this paper, we suggest a new program framework for supporting emergence of "solution research project", which aims to realize social system transformation based on technologies. To solve complicated social problems, we define a process model called "Vision Oriented Collaboration (VOC)" which includes: (1) developing social vision and solution prototype (2) sourcing for partner corporations, citizens and governmental organizations (3) packaging of technology/marketing/policy elements. Finally, we introduce our practice "Global Incubation Program (GIP)" which is an academic-industry collaboration platform designed based on VOC and note further development of the methodology and our program.
