OIST x iTHEMS workshop series - Will We Find Answers? Exploring the Mysteries of the Universe and Life - Series 1 | Cosmic ray and Life project |
This Workshop Series, co-hosted by OIST and RIKEN iTHEMS, invites you to embark on a journey to challenge the enigmas of the universe and life. We go beyond traditional Astrobiology, welcoming researchers, and students from diverse backgrounds to explore the intertwined mysteries of space and life through an interdisciplinary approach. This program offers an opportunity for individuals with backgrounds in life sciences, medicine, astronomy, astrophysics, philosophy, engineering, marine sciences, chemistry, etc., to participate in the quest for understanding the cosmic and biological enigmas. Join us in seeking unknown answers and embracing this captivating journey.
While we may not be able to complete this journey, let's pave the way for the next generation!

[BOG/BOC Special talk] Capitalism that works : Japan’s Economic Realities, Potential & Challenges
[BOG/BOC Special talk] Speaker: Mr. Jesper Koll
Capitalism that works : Japan’s Economic Realities
Japan has got what it takes to be an economic superpower and role model. As new global realities and national rivalries force unprecedented challenges and uncertainty for global leaders, Japan’s social resilience, political stability, corporate competitiveness, technocratic pragmatism and private sector innovation potential are poised to deliver positive upside surprises and real opportunities. No one doubts the potential; but can Japan really outperform on its own merits? Learn where exactly the opportunities are; how you can engage and profit from Japan’s new structural up-cycle; why there is more to sustainable prosperity than innovation and profit; what forces could derail it; and why Japan’s demographic destiny is an overarching positive force for next-Generation leaders, citizens and the rising Asian middle class.
