Research Abstract

This project has focused on the development of appropriate strategies for Japanese bio-ventures to commercialize their technologies. It has involved extensive discussions with biomedical scientists, early stage companies and larger companies who might become alliance partners. Obtaining regulatory approval of these technologies from PMDA, FDA or EMA, is a key goal of these strategies. Much case by case data has been collected through these strategy development activities. We are in the process of putting these findings to practical use and generalizing results so that we can benefit other scientists and policy makers.
