By Professor Jun Suzuki, National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies (GRIPS)

What is the background of the development of public research institutes (PRIs) in Japan and how do they affect the country’s innovation systems and industry? Is there a difference between the PRIs’ patents and those of universities and firms? What is the impact of the PRIs’ research collaboration with the private sector? This seminar will focus on the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research (RIKEN), and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA).
