Objective: Work with students who want to give shape to their ideas and offer products with new value to the world.

We’re working to help develop ideas from students as products through an industry-academia collaboration between universities and X PLUS and help students answer questions such as:

■ Why is it necessary?

■ Why are we producing it?

■ What sort of influence will it have?

Using strategies that originate from design thinking philosophies, we’ll be able to discover from the opinions of users’ what they truly need.

Projects based on this concept started in September 2022.
