Regional collaboration is one of the important roles expected to local universities, which are often positioned as community-based universities. The activities of regional collaboration and problem solving are often treated within the framework of the social contribution mission of universities, but in reality they are frequently carried out in close connection with the other two missions, education and research. In this paper, we introduce examples of efforts to solve regional issues at the University of Aizu, a local public university, in connection with the three missions of the university. In addition, we also consider the factors that these regional collaboration activities are carried out smoothly in parallel with the three missions of the university.
