A total of 31 applications were received for the 2025 Challenge & Creation (C&C) program, and a two-stage selection process was held on Saturday, May 17 at the Daihakata Building for the first and second rounds of screening.
●First round: Application form + 2-minute presentation (no Q&A)
●Second round (those who passed the first round): 3-minute presentation + Q&A session
Eight projects were selected by a panel of six judges, including five external judges, based on their ¡¡)Originality, ¡¡)Concreteness, ¡¡)Impact.
The selected teams will use the grant of up to 500,000 yen to work on social implementation of their ideas and deepening their research over a period of about one year.
The final results will be reviewed at a results reporting session, and particularly outstanding projects will receive an award from the President in March of next year.
We hope that your challenges at C&C will develop into initiatives that bring new perspectives and value to society.
Please work independently and flexibly toward the realization of your respective visions for approximately one year.
