Strong Relationships of Trust that Produce Results from Industry-academia Collaboration with Local Industries

Abstract

Even if a company or organization seeking to create a new business can connect with an entity that possesses the information or knowledge it needs, it will not necessarily be able to acquire the necessary information.The higher the value of the information needed, the more trust is required between the organization, and the greater the cost of acquiring the information.

In the case of the Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST), the interactive exchanges in the network built through the matching events they have been working on have created a network with trust, which has been used in recent initiatives.

In addition, it is about to produce new results through further utilization in future initiatives.
