Summary

"Ideation & Activation" is a framework for designing a vision or creating value by anticipating social needs. It leads to the discovery of new research topics and their social implementation.

Our team organizes Keio researchers to provide our clients with comprehensive solutions that tackle the pressing social issues and business challenges that corporations and local governments face.

We are determined to deploy academic knowledge to the public, and then we actively identify emerging social needs. As we address current challenges, transforming these needs into state-of-the-art research topics, we are enhancing our research capabilities and driving innovation.
