The establishment of an industry-academia-government forum on digital policy.

■ The establishment of an industry-academia-government forum on digital policy.

The Digital Policy Forum, a discussion platform for digital policy among industry, academia, and the government, has been launched.

The forum is a community for open online and offline discussion and proposal of cross-cutting themes related to social, economic, and digital issues such as technology.

It is a place where wisdoms are connected and discussed, from which action can be taken.

Purpose: “In recent years, issues such as security measures, cyber-terrorism countermeasures and intellectual property protection have expanded. At the same time, technological innovations such as AI, Big Data, IoT and 5G have advanced and a new international policy agenda has emerged. We will form a community to discuss and make suggestions to further digital policy.”

In addition to myself, the promoters of the Digital Policy Forum include Masaru Kitsuregawa, Director of the National Institute of Informatics, Ken Sakamura, Professor of Toyo University, Hideyuki Tokuda, President of NICT, Masao Horibe, Professor Emeritus of Hitotsubashi University, and Jun Murai, Professor of Keio University. 

The forum’s inaugural meeting was attended by researchers from universities and other institutions, ministries, and agencies including the Digital Agency, the Intellectual Property Headquarters, the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, and the Agency of Cultural Affairs.

The central figures discussing digital policy have gathered. More will join. 

As an initial agenda, we presented five items.

Data-driven society: Data distribution market and platform measures

Borderless market: international rules for data transactions

Market structure change: layer structure and competitive environment, especially in the telecommunications sector

IP policy: strategy for digital content

The state of the rules: frameworks for hard law and soft law, co-regulation, etc.
