Keisen Associates' senior partner, Taro Yaguchi, will be presenting a series of lectures in Japan entitled "Issues Surrounding International Technology Transfer and Global Alliances". The dates and venues are as follows: 

October 22nd (Monday) at  Kyushu University and Kumamoto University

This is indeed a very exciting time for global business-academia partnerships. Keisen/JTG has been working with Japanese universities to facilitate partnerships with western companies for many years. With the "incorporation" of Japanese National Universities in its third year, we have seen an accelerated effort on the part of the Japanese government and the universities to become more competitive in the global research market.

For further information on the upcoming talks , or if you would like more information on Japanese-US technology transfer strategies, please contact Mr. Yaguchi at  e-mail tyaguchi@keisenassociates.com.
