SP) Special Symposium

SP-2. Potential of Startups based in Chemical Engineering

Organizer(s): Inoue Gen (Kyushu Univ.), Oka Kouki (Tohoku Univ.), Kitakawa Naomi (Tohoku Univ.), Goto Masahiro (Kyushu Univ.), Koyama Michihisa (Shinshu Univ.), Tokoro Chiharu (Waseda Univ.), Noma Madoka (UTEC), Matsuda Keigo (Nagoya Univ.)

Startups are increasingly expected to serve as a driving force for sustainable economic growth. The Japanese government designated 2022 as the "First Year of Startup Creation" and formulated a five-year plan to increase the number of startups tenfold, positioning them as key players for innovation.

In particular, expectations are rising for deep-tech startups, tackling deeply rooted social challenges with advanced technologies. These startups typically face long timelines before product launch, require capital on a scale an order of magnitude larger than that of conventional ventures, and often struggle with issues such as mismatches between R&D and management talent, as well as communication gaps between researchers and investors.

This symposium will feature talks addressing topics such as the human-resource challenges surrounding startups, corporate efforts in open innovation, the hurdles faced by academia-origin startups during formation, and the challenges they encounter in scaling their businesses. From the perspective of the Society of Chemical Engineers, Japan, a community where academic researchers with deep-tech seeds gather, we aim to discuss opportunities for fostering startups and driving societal transformation.
