In a standing format, with light snacks and drinks, about 20\u201340 people at a time speak directly with the hosts and with others who share their interests. Building on the themes raised in the sessions, we reflect together with participants on questions such as “How do we put this into practice in the field?” and “What are the real barriers to implementation?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Overview<\/span><\/dt>\n\t

Building on the discussion in the preceding session, we will talk about the “real barriers” faced when taking deep tech out of the lab and putting it into practice in society as an industry. Focusing on what the main session could not fully cover, namely building organizations that can overcome regulatory and market hurdles and the “valley between management and governance,” we will explore practical insights together with participants.<\/p>\n\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n\n\n\n

This is a practical introduction designed to help you make the most of the connections you will make in the session that follows, “Marugoto CVC Zukan (A Complete Guide to CVCs).” Before the main session, which features a diverse lineup of CVCs, we will discuss how to partner with a CVC that drives business growth and how to evaluate CVCs with collaboration in mind, drawing on the CVC side’s real-world perspective. Use this as a way to prepare, so that the connections and business meetings at the session become more fruitful.<\/p>\n\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n\n\n\n
