[Lecturer] Director of the Public Interest Incorporated Association Security Dialogue Council / Defense Issues Researcher Member of the Defense Industry Working Group, Japan Growth Strategy Council, Ms. Misasa Sakurabayashi [Key Lecture Content] For many years, Japan's defense industry was considered a "non-profitable" sector, but it has suddenly come into the spotlight and is now positioned as part of the growth strategy. On the other hand, the needs for equipment development for the Self-Defense Forces, which is its original purpose, are rapidly changing, and the technologies required of companies are entering a new era. What direction will Japan's "defense industry policy," which includes multifaceted intentions such as the pursuit of sustained combat capability and trends, as well as industrial policy, take? Additionally, what barriers exist? I will discuss these topics. [Lecture Items] 1. The reality faced by the Self-Defense Forces - Countdown to 2027 2. The completely different Japanese "defense industry" and the global military supply industry 3. The structure and usage of defense spending 4. The evolving concept of equipment due to changing needs - DU (Dual Use) 5. What Japanese-style defense equipment transfer entails 6. Q&A

[Speaker] EY Strategy and Consulting Co., Ltd. Senior Manager, Advanced Manufacturing & Mobility, Yosuke Ikuide [Key Lecture Content] With the recent advancements in AI, humanoid robots with autonomous control are finally becoming a reality. However, while the technological evolution is remarkable, the market potential and impact on businesses remain uncertain. How much business opportunity will humanoids create in various industrial and service sectors? What timeline can we expect for their social implementation, and what level of impact will they have on the businesses of related companies? Additionally, there is little discussion about the potential for new entrants outside of existing robotics companies. In this lecture, we will revisit the fundamental definitions of automation and robotics to provide guidance on these questions, clarifying the future vision of social implementation based on that. We will also reveal the new markets and business opportunities that will emerge from this.
