Be Our Partner!
AIST's mission is to continuously create outstanding technology and bring it to society. Recently, business opportunities that have expanded across the world's industrial structures have also been rapidly changing, as can be seen in trans-boundary alliances and the appearance of new types of business. As a result of globalization, issues that were previously recognized at local levels, including environmental pollution, the depletion of energy resources, the rapid growth and aging of populations, and infectious diseases, are now becoming global issues. In order to accomplish our mission under such economic conditions, a global perspective is essential.
AIST actively promotes collaborative work with leading companies, research institutions, and universities worldwide. AIST believes its important role for the future is to contribute to innovation driven by science and technology, which will lead to the creation of new value, not only benefitting Japan and partner countries, but also moving towards the sustainable development of the world.
