Earthquake Prediction with Challenging Spirit in Strategic Management

抄録

Earthquake (EQ) prediction is one of the most challenging subjects for human society, but it is concluded by the Japanese government that short-term EQ prediction is impossible. However, there has been a lot of scientific progress in this field during the last three decades, and it is found that there appear many interesting precursors (mainly electromagnetic) to EQs. In order to continue this kind of research, the author established a university-based venture company which is oriented to research. This paper deals with the challenging spirit of EQ prediction in their strategic management and the business plan in relation to EQ prediction.
