[Speaker] PwC Consulting LLC PwC Intelligence Manager Toshinori Tomizawa [Key Lecture Content] The defense industry is gaining attention as a field for growth strategy consideration, while also facing constraints such as declining birth rates, supply chain vulnerabilities, and uncertainties in business continuity. This lecture will reframe the defense industry not merely as a supplier of equipment but as an industrial structure that includes technology, supply chains, and economic security, based on the published report "Environmental Changes Surrounding the Defense Industry and Corporate Choices." It will then present the potential for Japanese companies to participate and the criteria for decision-making, centered around the "International Supply Model," which consists of three forms: export of completed equipment, international joint development and production, and regional maintenance hubs. [Lecture Items] 1. Environmental changes surrounding the defense industry 2. Structural constraints faced by Japan's defense production and technology base 3. "International Supply Model" based on international cooperation 4. Potential for Japanese companies to participate in the defense sector 5. Criteria for decision-making regarding involvement in the defense sector 6. Future outlook for the defense industry and choices required from companies 7. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Instructor] Kyoko Kawasaki, President and CEO, First Innovatec Co., Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] This seminar will explain the thinking necessary to enhance the quality of decision-making in research and development themes. In recent years, while the importance of research and development investment has increased, challenges have emerged where traditional cost-effectiveness and numerical indicators are insufficient for evaluation, particularly when the applications and markets for technology are uncertain. In such situations, it is crucial to not only gather data but also to reassess the "perspective on decision-making," including what to capture, how to interpret it, and under what conditions to make judgments. In this seminar, we will organize the basic structure of evaluation centered on the relationships between technology, applications, and markets, and discuss the factors that distort decision-making as well as the thought processes for making judgments on themes with high uncertainty. Additionally, we will address how to compare and select multiple research and development themes from various perspectives and how organizations should design their decision-making processes. The aim is not merely to introduce evaluation methods but to clarify what perspectives should be held in actual decision-making, thereby contributing to the improvement of the quality of judgment regarding research and development investments within one's own company.
