Medtec Grand Prix KOBE

MEDTECH Seminar 2023 will be held on Thursday, May 18, 2012.

2023/04/24

In Japan, many of the seeds for drug discovery are found overseas, which has delayed the creation of an ecosystem in which unique technological seeds can be born and nurtured in Japan. However, it is also true that there are many R&D projects in the life science field, such as biotechnology, medicine, and medical devices, being conducted in Japan. Therefore, we will focus on Japan's technological seeds and promote the creation of a new ecosystem in which large corporations, small and medium-sized enterprises, venture companies, research institutions, universities, local governments, and medical institutions work together to raise the level of Japan's life science capabilities in 5 to 10 years' time.

One of the efforts to achieve thisMedtec Grand Prix KOBE2023We are now accepting applications for entry teams for the DEMO DAY to be held on October 7, 2023. [Application deadline: Friday, July 7, 2012].
