TIA

TIA is an open innovation hub operated by six organizations: AIST, NIMS, University of Tsukuba, KEK, the University of Tokyo, and Tohoku University. TIA supports all the necessary processes from the creation of new knowledge to its industrial application through the collaboration of the six organizations. Tsukuba Innovation Arena for Nanotechnology (TIA-nano, 2009-2015) promoted open innovations in nano-technology. After the University of Tokyo joined in 2016, the hub has expanded its research fields to include biotechnology, computational science and the internet of things (IoT), in addition to nanotechnology which continues to serve as the foundation of its R&D effort. Tohoku University has joined in 2020. TIA supports feasible studies (Kakehashi), human-resource development, open research facilities, and formation of base for industrialization.
