JAXA New Business Promotion Department Website Renewed!

The New Business Promotion Department of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has completely renewed its official website (https://aerospacebiz.jaxa.jp/). The menu structure has been significantly reorganized, transforming it into a site where companies, startups, and research institutions interested in the space business can more intuitively find 'what they can do'. The JAXA New Business Promotion Department aims to expand the space-related market by creating businesses, strengthening competitiveness, and broadening the base in the aerospace field. Through co-creation utilizing JAXA's technology, facilities, and knowledge, and support for startups and companies, it is opening up new possibilities for the space industry. It accepts various consultations such as 'Can space technology be used for disaster prevention or agriculture?', 'I want to use JAXA patents for new product development', or 'I want to launch a startup'. It functions as the first point of contact for anyone interested in the space business, aiming to create innovation with a wide range of partners from ventures to large companies and local governments. The point of this renewal is that the site has been organized into five categories: 1. Co-create with JAXA (J-SPARC, JAXA-STEPS, etc.), 2. Use JAXA (utilization of patents/technology, provision of facilities), 3. Support (startup support, global expansion, regional cooperation, investment systems), 4. Japanese Space Companies/Organizations (database), 5. Information Corner (practical information). If you are a company or organization interested in new businesses utilizing space technology and JAXA resources, please feel free to consult us!
