Conducting interviews to deepen mutual understanding with companies in Utsunomiya City Rather than suddenly deciding on a collaborative partner, we discuss business co-creation directly with company representatives and dedicated mentors to align the direction of the business. The interview will be held completely online, so you can participate from anywhere in the country. 2. Support for formulating a collaboration plan (hypothesis verification plan) You can support the formulation of a collaborative plan online or offline, and together with your dedicated mentor, you can decide who will test what hypothesis, when, and the criteria for
commercialization. We are also planning an event to objectively refine our collaborative plans, including feedback from third parties. 3. Support for starting independent collaboration We will support the start of collaboration so that you can become independent and develop your business through collaboration even after the program ends. If necessary, we will collaborate towards commercialization while incorporating the opinions of experts, and we will be able to promote the project both inside and outside of Utsunomiya City at the results report meeting. ■About participating companies and recruitment themes Muro Corporation Co., Ltd. “We aim to develop eco-friendly goods and toys and realize an environment-friendly society! ”
