[Seminar] Latest Trends in Promoting Geothermal Energy Utilization

At Eihon Seiki, we handle Brookfield's rotational viscometers, which are widely used by many customers. We offer consulting services such as measurement method proposals and data analysis to assist our customers with viscometers and rheometers. As part of our ongoing commitment to customer service, we have planned a viscometer user seminar. We will invite Professor Toshiyuki Shikata, an emeritus professor at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, who is active in the field of rheology, to give a lecture covering the basics of viscosity and an introduction to viscoelasticity. There will also be opportunities to ask questions to Professor Shikata and our technical staff regarding any issues or uncertainties you may have in your daily work. We encourage you to consider participating in this opportunity. Seminar Overview: - We will provide an easy-to-understand lecture on the basics of viscosity and viscosity measurement. - We will explain points that can help improve the reproducibility of daily measurements and maintenance within your company. - We will introduce the dispersion of solutions and stability evaluation through live demonstrations. - You will have the opportunity to ask questions directly to Professor Shikata and Eihon Seiki's technical staff.

[Speaker] Cabinet Office, Government of Japan Science and Technology Innovation Promotion Office Planning Officer Takayuki Sato [Key Lecture Content] Japan's AI policy is structured around the fundamental directions of "balancing innovation promotion and risk response" and "international cooperation." In the AI Basic Plan established at the end of last year, we aim to pursue "trustworthy AI" that maintains a human-centered AI society where individual dignity is respected, enabling continuous collaboration between humans and AI. Our goal is to make Japan "the easiest country in the world to develop and utilize AI." This lecture will provide an overview of Japan's AI policies, including examples of initiatives. [Lecture Items] 1. Evolution and development trends of AI 2. Japan's AI policy (background of the AI law enactment, promotion system, etc.) 3. AI-related initiatives (AI Basic Plan, AI guidelines, etc.) 4. Q&A / Business card exchange

In this 5S seminar, we won't just stop at "organizing and tidying up." We will provide plenty of tips on how to utilize 5S as a "visualization of work" and a "tool for discovering waste," evolving the workplace into a more comfortable and productive environment! ✅ Improvement tips you can use starting tomorrow ✅ Engaging and practical exercises and workshops that will inspire and excite you From "doing it because I was told to" to "wanting to take action myself" Your step forward will lead to the evolution of the entire team. This is an opportunity to cultivate a "mindset for improvement" among young employees and enhance the autonomy of the entire organization. From "waiting for instructions" to "thinking and taking action" As you become more accustomed to your work, you will notice the waste and potential that exists. Now, let's gain the "power to change" with 5S! Benefits of 5S: 1. People grow 2. Time becomes more abundant 3. The workplace environment improves 4. 5S does not require significant costs 5. It can be implemented regardless of company size or job type 6. It is appreciated by stakeholders We will teach you the tips to transform 5S from something done because a superior said to do it, or only when there is time, into an enjoyable and sustainable practice. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

This exhibition is one of the largest specialized symposiums in Japan, focusing on fullerenes, carbon nanotubes (CNT), graphene, nanomaterials, advanced materials, functional materials, and two-dimensional materials. Many researchers and engineers involved in material development, device applications, measurement and analysis, research and development, and mass production technology will attend. At our booth, we will introduce products and technological solutions that support research in nanocarbon, advanced material evaluation, device development, and industrial applications from fundamental research. ■ Planned Exhibits - Products from PicoQuant - Ultra-high stability interferometer "GEMINI" (NIREOS) - Superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD) (Single Quantum) - Broadband wavelength-tunable laser 400–1000nm SuperK CHROMATUNE (NKT Photonics)
