magicc Overview

magicc

The magicc program is a research project that seeks to address environmental issues, energy problems and economic concerns through the work of “academicians of business and management and scholars of innovation.” As its name indicates, the project places its emphasis on visiting corporate worksites and conducting research based upon an in-depth understanding of the realities of technology development and enterprise management from a “microeconomics point of view,” a characteristic that sets the program apart from the many other research endeavors that focus on environmental and energy problems. As a result of the Great East Japan Earthquake, Japan currently is grappling with three serious and contradictory problems concerning the environment (reduction of…

Background and purpose

i/g/a Collaboration

■ Background and purpose Innovation holds the key to Japan’s future economic growth. The process of innovation is highly complex, and accompanied by a social division of labor. To clarify measures that will effectively promote innovation in both the creation and application of knowledge, there is a need for systematic research into every process of innovation, from the accumulation of objective data and creation of ideas based on such data to their use. This research endeavor is pursuing research on innovation processes, including the mechanisms of knowledge creation and paths toward competition and cooperation in R&D, based on industry-academia-government collaboration (personnel exchanges, sharing of data and sharing of costs). Together…
