JETRO and the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI) launched the Japan-Singapore Co-Creation Platform (JSCCP), a new collaborative framework to promote open innovation between Japan and Singapore earlier this year. We have since held two seminars, introducing Singapore’s position and policies on open innovation to Japanese companies and sharing success cases of multinational companies. The third seminar will be held during the Singapore Week of Innovation & Technology (SWITCH) as an official satellite event of SWITCH, with the theme of “Pioneering the Future in Singapore – The Path to Successful Innovation”. We will be holding a networking lunch after the lectures. This is a great opportunity to meet with various key persons.
