Regional Cooperation
In order to respond to the declining population, declining birthrate and rising elderly population, it is increasingly necessary to look within the regions and create life, work and happiness. We aim to conduct joint research for the nurturing of personnel or creation of new systems that are needed for sustainable regional development conducted by local governments, organizations and businesses.
