Japan Science and Technology Agency Innovative Technology Development Research Project
Cultivation of more innovative and practical technologies.
The Innovative Technology Development Research Project aims to pave the way for the future of industries in the next generation, while also establishing a new foundation for development in the 21st century through highly innovative and original technology research. This project widely solicits proposals from private companies, commissions research on excellent proposals, and seeks to foster more innovative and practical technologies. Until fiscal year 2003, this system was implemented by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology as the "Creative Innovative Technology Development Research Proposal Solicitation System." Following the policy of transferring to an independent funding agency as indicated by the Council for Science and Technology Policy, it was transferred to JST starting from new topics in fiscal year 2004 and is currently being implemented.

basic information
[Features] This project aims to cultivate technological seeds buried in the private sector and promote the creation of new industries, thereby contributing to the return of results to society and the economy. Therefore, it is necessary to meet all of the following requirements. The content of the research related to technological development must have significant practical significance for solving the challenges faced by our country (in addition to revitalizing the economy, building a safe, secure, and enriching society) and must specifically anticipate ripple effects on the lives of citizens and industries. This project will promote research under industry-academia collaboration, so participation from researchers at universities and other institutions (cooperating researchers) is essential. (Universities and other institutions refer to national, public, and private universities, joint-use institutions, colleges of technology, national research institutes, public research institutes, and special corporations, independent administrative agencies, and public interest corporations engaged in research.)

Company information
Regarding JST's main business of funding (allocation of competitive research funds), the method of formulating science and technology strategies has been fundamentally reviewed through project sorting, resulting in a clearer positioning that contributes to the "achievement of strategic goals." In Japan's scientific research funding, there are mainly two pillars: the Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research (Kakenhi) from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) and JST's Strategic Creation Research Promotion Program. Both fall under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, but while Kakenhi supports research based on researchers' free ideas in a bottom-up manner, JST's funding is top-down, responding to societal and industrial needs and supporting research that leads to the achievement of specific strategic goals in areas deemed important for national strategy. To achieve strategic goals, it is recognized that rather than allowing individual researchers to conduct research freely, it is important to set research areas to achieve the goals, select optimal research leaders, recruit and adopt researchers, and promote research, thus managing the area effectively.
