[Instructor] Hiroto Hayashi, Attorney at Law, New York State, Mori Hamada & Matsumoto Law Firm, Foreign Law Joint Enterprise [Key Lecture Content] Recently, batteries are expected to serve as a balancing power source for the realization of renewable energy as a primary power source. Due to changes in the business environment brought about by market development and government support measures, opportunities in the battery business are expanding. For grid-connected batteries, there are multiple options for long-term decarbonization power source auctions, tolling models, and merchant models, and the points of project development vary depending on the offtake method. Additionally, with the spread of the FIP system, the installation of batteries alongside renewable energy generation facilities is also progressing. In this lecture, we will explain the systems related to batteries, as well as key points for contract creation and negotiation, and financing necessary to steadily advance projects. We will also outline the challenges and prospects for project development and project finance formation according to each offtake scheme.

[Lecturer] Hideo Yamada, Ph.D. Honorary Professor, Waseda University Visiting Professor, Business Breakthrough University Graduate School [Key Lecture Content] Companies face various trade-offs (dilemmas) such as quality vs. cost, inventory levels vs. service levels, and standardization vs. differentiation. Traditionally, companies have responded to trade-offs by (1) finding a balance or (2) prioritizing one over the other. However, this does not lead to fundamental solutions. In this lecture, I will propose a third method that is neither balancing nor prioritizing. Using case studies from over 50 Japanese companies, I will explain it in an easy-to-understand manner. If we can turn long-standing trade-offs into trade-ons (coexistence), business opportunities will arise. [Lecture Topics] 1. What is a trade-off? 2. Trade-offs between customers and companies 3. Trade-offs within companies 4. Trade-offs within customers 5. How to turn trade-offs into trade-ons 6. Steps for exploration 7. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Lecturers] Corporate Partner, Nishimura & Asahi Law Office Osaka, Mr. Satoshi Niki Associate, Nishimura & Asahi Law Office - Foreign Law Joint Enterprise, Mr. Shu Numazawa [Key Lecture Content] In recent years, the diversification of defense cooperation and advancements in dual-use technology have significantly changed the management and international sharing of advanced technologies. This lecture will clarify the basic structure of Article 3 of the Japan-U.S. Technology Agreement and the significance of "similar treatment," while explaining the institutional transformation brought about by the introduction of the non-public patent application system under the Economic Security Promotion Act. Furthermore, considering the relationship between this system and the Japan-U.S. Technology Agreement, we will examine how to reposition the patent applications and secrecy management of defense-related technologies within the context of expanding international joint research and multilateral defense cooperation. [Lecture Items] 1. Diversification of defense cooperation and advancements in dual-use technology 2. Basic structure of Article 3 of the Japan-U.S. Technology Agreement 3. Practical application of "similar treatment" 4. Introduction of the non-public patent system (Economic Security Promotion Act) 5. Relationship between the non-public patent system and Article 3 of the Japan-U.S. Technology Agreement 6. Expansion of international joint research and reevaluation of Article 3 7.
