Members can obtain various levels of information they need.
[1]
Availability of high-quality, chemistry-related information
Members can
participate in executive forums, special forums, and so forth, and engage in
exchanges with leaders of the chemical industry and administrative offices, such
as the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. In this way, the members are
able to coordinate among industry, academia and government, among member
businesses, and among relevant industries, and propose policies at the national
level.
[2] Ready availability of state-of-the-art technical
information
Symposiums will be held with leading experts from industry,
academia and government invited as guest speakers. Technical issues in important
fields will be identified at various technology subcommittees and lecture
meetings to examine trends in state-of-the-art technologies in line with such
issues. As a result of the integration, the fields of study will be expanded,
and the frequency at which lecture meetings are held will also increase
substantially.
Members can attend lecture meetings free of charge. Moreover,
they can deepen their exchanges with a wide variety of guest speakers and
participants in a small party afterwards. Coordination amongst individuals will
also be cultivated as before.
[3] Substantial exchanges
Members can seek
to create new businesses in inter-industry areas by freely participating in
technology subcommittees, probing the trends of new technologies, and conducting
investigations concerning the development of such technologies. At the same
time, members can also increase their personal connections outside the
company.
[4] In-depth investigation of individual subjects
Members can
participate in study groups, where important issues that are common to the
members and issues for the future are discussed in a timely manner. Members can
conduct in-depth investigations of such issues, thereby being able to seek the
launch of national projects and suchlike.
Members can seek improvements in
the technical levels of member businesses through participation in working
groups/subworking groups under the auspice of the technology subcommittees, and
by participating in the management of these groups.
[5] Support for training
young researchers
Members can participate in seminars free of charge that are
intended for young corporate R&D staff to support and promote
state-of-the-art research and development, thereby making optimum use of such
courses to cultivate young R&D staff.
