In FY2011, we accepted a total of 562 foreign researchers, of which around 3/4 of whom were from Asian countries. We play a leadership role in Asia, and collaborate closely with Asian countries. We aim to make AIST a hub for researchers from around the world to meet and share information.It is our key mission to disseminate our research results in society and contribute to economic and industrial development. To achieve the mission, we acquire intellectual property rights, and maintain and manage them in an appropriate manner to achieve technology transfer, and strongly promote technology transfer based on intellectual property.Technical consultation is a program in which AIST provides consultation to companies, universities and public testing and research organizations based on AIST’s technological potential developed over the years. When we are consulted on a technological issue, technological advisors, innovation coordinators and research scientists work together to provide an appropriate answer.●Example of consultationTopic of consultation▲Consultation on technical points to ensure reproducibility in the development of a highly integrated sensor device based on a geometric methodAction▲Advice was provided on the importance of the surface condition of the substrate used to fabricate the device as well as on a method to clean it. Discussion was held with researchers and led to the decision to perform joint research on a substrate that allows easy control of the fabrication parameters.Acceptance of Foreign ResearchersTechnology Transfer ActivitiesTechnical ConsultationChina:157(30)Korea:86(19)US: 13 (3)India: 36 (3)Others from Americas: 23 (2)France: 30 (2)Others from Europe: 50 (11)Oceania, Middle East, Africa: 19 (1)Others from Asia: 148 (11)Total:562050※Note: The number in the parentheses indicates the number of AIST employees100150200250300350Oceania, Middle East, AfricaAmericasEuropeAsiaTechnical trainees (110)Visiting researchers (290)Contract employees (80)Employees (82)Number of foreign researchers by country and region in FY201126|Open InnovationToward a Sustainable SocietyOpen Innovation
