Our Values

Respect for creativity: TODAI TLO is a marketing team that accompanies researchers in their thoughts and ideas and their own creativity towards social implementation.

Challenges with enthusiasm: We work with enthusiasm to make as much use of the university's technology as possible in technology transfer activities that involve uncertainty.

Promoting the appeal of science: Do you remember the excitement you felt when the steam train, bullet train and mobile phone were invented?
We want to create a new world through science and technology. We are working with this in mind.

Message from the CEO

We want to link university knowledge to the creation of a prosperous future society.

The results of university research are produced from a variety of perspectives, including the search for truth, research aimed at solving social problems, and research that imagines the society of the future.
We are working to link as many of these research results as possible to the creation of a prosperous future society.
We are also expanding our network of industrial partners who are willing to cooperate with us in the social implementation of such knowledge through industry-academia collaboration. New start-ups have also joined this network.
All of us at the University of Tokyo are united in our efforts to promote technology transfer activities so that this knowledge-based network of the University of Tokyo can continue to grow.
We would like to ask for your help and support in this endeavour.

CEO Keiko Honda
