A new 'SOCIAL INNOVATION AREA' will be unveiled at 'IVS 2023 KYOTO', Japan's largest startup conference held in Kyoto. This area will provide content related to cutting-edge projects and researchers who are using technology to solve social problems.
According to the 'IVS 2023 KYOTO' executive committee, the social innovation area will be established during the three-day event from June 28th to 30th, and taliki Inc. will be producing it. The area will be located on the third floor of the Kyoto City Transportation Museum, 'Miyako Messe'.
Within the area, stages, exhibition spaces, and booths will be set up covering topics related to social problem solving. Entrepreneurs, investors, researchers, NGOs, and government officials from various fields, including biotech, public health, medicine, materials, AI, space, energy, and investment, will be invited to explore the future of humanity.
Experts from various fields will be invited as speakers at the stage to discuss creating social impact and achieving true well-being. There will be opportunities to introduce and discuss various means and methodologies for realizing social innovation.
Visitors will be able to directly experience social innovation projects through interactive screens and cutting-edge technology exhibitions. For example, they will learn about social innovation cases from various organizations and companies, including Digithaha, Watanabe Lab at the University of Tokyo, and the Osaka Kansai International Art Festival. In addition, cross-field side events will be held to provide opportunities for exchange.
This social innovation area stems from the recognition that it is difficult to handle complex and massive social problems alone. The aim is for relevant stakeholders to come together to collaborate and explore the path toward social innovation. The executive committee explained that they hope this will be an opportunity for curious young people to meet peers and move forward together.
