iU B Lab Starts!

■iU B Lab Starts!

iU will start the "iU B Lab", a lab where everyone can create an interesting future together.

https://blaboratory.org/


"B Lab" is an acronym for Beyond, Borderless, Breakthrough.

It is a participatory platform that connects universities, research institutes, regions, and human resources around the world, to integrate people's specialties and knowledge to create technology, services, content, businesses, and society.


It stands at the gateway to Society 5.0 represented by technology such as AI/IoT, and it will create something new.

It will create a new world with/after COVID-19.

So far, the state, universities and corporate research institutes have been dealing with this issue on an individual basis.

Next, it is time for a different approach from highly specialized research institutions, based on advanced academia.


A lab where all users are connected to build a new society.

I want to create a platform and chamber for growth to create new technology, services, content, businesses, and society, by integrating a wide variety of knowledge and the expertise of many people in a participatory format that is social and open.


The scope is broad, and includes technology development, solving social issues, and creating new services, but the common denominator is creating together with digital technology and social implementation.

It is a new, participatory research institute that is social and open. 


The theme is "Creating Interesting Futures".

It focuses on creating an interesting future and implementing it in society.

We will co-create the future, from small creations to large ones, including innovations and inventions in daily life, and the creation of new businesses that have never existed before.

It is also a place for matching issues, ideas, technology, money, skills, and people.


●A community of universities and research institutes from around the world

Collaborating with 100 research institutes from around the world, to create a community that transcends boundaries.

●A global field of operation

 Setting up labs around the world, whether they be virtual or real.

●Anyone can be a researcher

 A plan to have one million researchers. Anyone from grandmothers to children can be a researcher. 


"Technology" such as IT and AI, "Culture" such as pop culture, and "People" are the three focal points that bring about innovation. Incubating these three focal points induces further innovation.

Innovation x Incubation = i².

Technology, culture, and people.

Creating and nurturing them together.


For the time being, we will formulate the following projects in the areas of education, industry, and the community.
