【3/3-4 HIC Tokyo 2023】Panel Discussion：Innovation in a BOX or outside of the BOX?
Mar 3rd (Fri) 14:00-14:50
Session Partner Global Innovation Aliance
Recently, we often hear the expression “out of the box thinking”. However, isn't it also necessary to do all you can under limited conditions before stepping outside the box to create something new? One of the growth strategies of Singapore, the hub of Southeast Asia, is to have startups that are thoroughly supported within their own country, go beyond the constraints of a small market, and spread their wings to the world. In this session, through discussions with Singaporean government organizations and leading Japanese and Singaporean startups, we will clarify what is happening/what can be done in Singapore (small box), and provide hints for Japanese companies to co-create activities with startups.
既成概念に囚われずに考えることがイノベーションに繋がるという意味で「Out of the box」という表現を最近よく耳にします。しかし、boxの外に出る前に限られた条件下でやれることをやりつくすことも新しいコトを起こすためには必要ではないでしょうか？東南アジアのハブ・シンガポールの国家成長戦略の肝は、自国の中で徹底的にサポートされたベンチャーが、小さなマーケットという制約を超えて世界へ羽ばたくことにあります。本セッションでは、シンガポールという小さなboxの中で起きていること/出来ることを政府組織とベンチャーとの対話から明らかにし、日本企業にとってのベンチャーとの共創活動へのヒントを提供します。

In 2016, Keith recognized that Asia’s coffee offerings were not meeting the expectations or needs of all consumers. To solve this issue, Keith assembled a team of technologists, baristas, and coffee lovers to explore how cutting-edge robotics and zero-touch technology could bring Asia’s time-pressed commuters a consistently perfect cup of coffee. The result was “ELLA”, the robot barista. True to Keith’s original vision of addressing the commuter whitespace, ELLA has been embraced by some of the busiest commuter hubs in Asia, with industry players including East Japan Railway Company and Stellar Lifestyle bringing ELLA to Singapore and Japan’s subway systems.
