Main Topic: Future of Super Smart Society​

Tokyo Tech Academy for Super Smart Society will open a two-day Global Forum on November 19 and 20.
On the first day, we have invited lectures of our overseas advisors about the future of super smart society from their own expertise and perspectives. On the second day, we organize research presentation sessions of our students to interact with the overseas advisors and SSS consortium members, as well as group discussion and presentation on the future scenarios produced by Tokyo Tech DLab.
We look forward to meeting you there!
