    This paper reviews the changes in the Science and Technology Basic Plan and the Management Philosophy of J-SIP, focusing on the main issue of 7th period including before and after the period. In the Third Science and Technology Basic Plan at the time of the inauguration of J-SIP, industry-academia-government collaboration was expected as an important means to create continuous innovation from research results. The Fifth Science and Technology Basic Plan at the time of the 7th J-SIP term called for “full-scale industry-academia-government collaboration” because the existing functions of industry-academia collaboration were insufficient. Looking back on the accumulation of analytical research on industry-academia collaboration, I will consider, based on the results of the memorial session, the importance of evidence-based multifaceted analysis and dispassionate discussion, which is the mission of academic societies, and the future direction of J-SIP's research on industry-academia collaboration.

    Academia, such as universities and public research institutions, does not have the ability to commercialize research results. Therefore, in order to generate innovation based on the research results generated there, it is necessary to either transfer the research results to industry or establish a start-up company to commercialize the results. According to previous research, the research results from academia are more suitable for establishing a start-up company than for technology transfer due to their feature. On the other hand, in order to establish a start-up company, funds are required to acquire various resources, but it is difficult for a start-up company that utilizes academic research results to obtain funds.

    This study analyzed four projects in which academia and venture capital collaborated to validate the establishment of start-up companies that utilize the results of academia's research. The process for obtaining proof of concept was used as a framework in the analysis. The results of the analysis confirm that the collaboration between academia and venture capital to implement projects can resolve information asymmetry and uncertainty, and has an impact on the establishment and funding of the start-up company.
