| Company Intro |
 In recent years, as the fact that we cannot pass a day without individual ICT terminals indicates, ICT is the most basic and indispensable function which supports business activities and people's lives. Moreover, IoT (Internet of Things) environment, in which everything that exists surrounding us, in addition to the terminals such as PCs and smartphones, are connected to a network, has been created, and various connected services are being realized. The newly connected services and data are raising innovation to create new values in a variety of fields. Because of contribution of these new ICT, cyber space is going even further to enhance and expand. The fusion of the cyber space and real space is progressing rapidly, and a cyber-physical space, as a new life space, has been formed. In addition, not only "benefits to be connected" but "risk caused by being connected" is also expanding, thus cyber security and privacy protection have become important issues. In the midst of this, the entire social system is needed to change to a form suitable to the cyber-physical space. In order to demonstrate its potential fully in the new paradigm, in the Fourth Medium- to Long-Term Plan that started from April 2016, we are devoting ourselves to tackling the world’s leading edge fundamental and basic R&D for ICT, based on these five foundations: ・ “Watch” the real world through ICT ・ “Connect” society through wireless and optical communications technologies ・ “Create” new value through data utilization, etc. ・ “Protect” society from sophisticated and complicated cyber attacks ・ “Develop” new horizons of information and communications, In addition, improving the quality of research and development, in order to more effectively implement our achievements to society, it is essential to build a system of collaboration among industry, universities, local governments, and research institutions at home and abroad. NICT, as a hub for open innovation in the field of ICT, will comprehensively promote broad range of efforts, in close cooperation with relevant parties, from the basic and fundamental research and development to support for new business activities, and will continue to contribute to the realization of a new social system. |
