At our exhibition booth, we will introduce the project's activities and promote the development and adoption of robotic care devices.
On the final day, Friday, October 4th, we will hold a presentation titled "Towards Overseas Expansion of Robotic Care Devices." This session will introduce Japanese policies supporting overseas expansion and the potential for global market entry, including actual case studies, for businesses considering international expansion.
Additionally, this year we will newly offer consultation sessions at our booth for developers regarding clinical evaluation, safety design, and verification for the domestic and international deployment of robotic care devices. Our project's consultation advisors and seminar instructors will be available on-site to answer your questions directly. We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to consult with us. Businesses wishing to consult must make a reservation in advance via the reservation form on our portal site. Please see the consultation session information page for details.
We look forward to welcoming all those involved in care, developers of robotic care devices,
