"SSI-Sustainable Social Infrastructure" is a strategic field of Tokyo Tech that aims to build next-generation social infrastructure to support the safety, security, and happiness of each individual for 100-year life.
SSI Team Tokyo Tech, led by the School of Environment and Society, is working to solve four global social challenges: building a resilient society, designing voices of the Earth, creating smart cities, and innovation.
SSI Team Tokyo Tech aims to create new "knowledge" and make practical contributions to society through collaboration with business, industry and public sector as well as international research partnerships.
This symposium will introduce cutting-edge researches in Tokyo Tech and its overseas partner universities, and discuss challenges and solutions for the creation of social infrastructure with a focus on "people".
We hope that all participants in this symposium will consider and attempt to connect diverse research seeds and businesses, thereby realizing an ecosystem for the creation of next-generation social infrastructure.
