Japan Society for Research Policy and
Innovation Management

Outline

Science and technology (S&T) is the base of development in industry, region, country and human society. How to use S&T for economic, societal, cultural development and creation of innovation, and how to manage the research and development (R&D) for national policy and corporate management have become one of the most important issues. It is necessary to encourage creativity, to promote effective research and efficient technology development and to form original system of innovation in harmony with human, society and nature. For this purpose, we investigate and theorize the essential properties of the R&D process and improve them in the practical process. The society will address “basic knowledge system” and “accumulation of diverse practical knowledge” broadly related to management of society and economics and relevant policy based on R&D and Innovation.

The example issues of the society are;

  1. Strategy, planning and management related to R&D and Innovation
  2. Corporate management towards creation of innovation
  3. Analysis, evaluation and proposal of policy for S&T and Innovation
  4. International strategy and national system of innovation
  5. Correspondence to change of the society due to the development of S&T
  6. Promotion of public understanding of S&T and Innovation

which include wide subjects of industry, academia and public research institutes and regional, national and international subjects as well as sector innovation systems, industry-academia linkages, and human capital development for innovation.
