【超異分野学会 香川フォーラム2023】Forging global bridge with Monozukuri minded entrepreneurs／2023年12月9日 15:20-16:10
<Session Introduction in Japanese>
リバネスが主催する超異分野学会 香川フォーラム2023にて、パネルディスカッション「Forging global bridge with Monozukuri minded entrepreneurs」（セッションパートナー HOXIN株式会社）を開催いたします。
近年東南アジア諸国では、マレーシアのIndustry4.0やフィリピンの開発計画2023-2028という政策が掲げるように、生産現場への技術導入を促進しようとしている。一方で日本のものづくり企業やベンチャー企業といえば、やはり現場で稼働させることを前提に、細部にこだわった設計・製造や、「なんとかする」力を持っているのが強みだ。本セッションでは、ドローン・流通ロボティクスベンチャーをマレーシアから招聘し、筑波大学発でシリコンバレーにも拠点を構えるAIロボティクスベンチャーと、日本企業の海外展開を推進するリバネスフィリピン代表のYev氏と共に議論する。ものづくり精神は、国境を超えて共有できるのか？各国のアントレプレナーが、日本と東南アジアを面で捉えた未来を描く。
本セッションのテーマに限らず、様々な切り口から研究者、スタートアップ、大企業でディスカッションするプログラムをご用意しております。詳しくは、大会ウェブサイトをご参照ください。
<Session Introduction in English>
A panel discussion, “Forging global bridges with Monozukuri minded entrepreneurs” (session partner HOXIN CO.,LTD.), will be held at Hyper interdisciplinary Conference Kagawa Forum 2023, hosted by Leave a Nest.
Hyper interdisciplinary Conference Kagawa Forum 2023
In recent years, Southeast Asian countries have been trying to promote the introduction of technology into production sites, as set forth in Malaysia's Industry 4.0 and the Philippines' Development Plan 2023-2028 policies. On the other hand, Japanese manufacturing companies and deep-tech startups still maintain their ability to design and manufacture products with attention to detail. They have the ability to manage manufacturing processes and “make it work out” on the premise that products will be surely operated onsite. In this session, 2 startups, a drone startup, and a distribution robotics startup, will be invited from Malaysia to discuss with a Japanese AI robotics startup that originated from Tsukuba University and also has a base in Silicon Valley. Dr. Yev Dulla – Managing Director of Leave a Nest Philippines, that promotes overseas expansion of Japanese companies – will moderate the session to give clarity to cross border activities. Can the spirit of “Monozukuri” be shared across borders? Entrepreneurs from each country will discuss the future of Japan and Southeast Asia.
We will have a program of discussions among researchers, start-ups, and large companies from a variety of perspectives, not limited to the themes of this session. For more information, please refer to the conference website.
