We invited speakers from Material ConneXion Tokyo, a global company based in Tokyo that gathers materials from all over the world and provides consultation for product and application development. We hosted a speaker seminar on materials and design.
Using examples, the speaker introduced the types of designs that can be derived from the added values, functionality, and inspiration of materials.
We illuminated how the relationship between materials and design leads to innovation.
This seminar received financial support in 2015 from the Enhancing Development of Global Entrepreneur Program (EDGE program), an assistance program that promotes the development of science and technology personnel.
