This contest is an event where startup companies pioneering the future from Iwate present their plans for social implementation and future visions 10 years ahead.

Tohoku Medical Systems presented on the value its product 'Uberto', designed to support rehabilitation for hemiplegic patients, could provide to medical and rehabilitation settings over the next 10 years. The presentation proposed possibilities for solving social issues, such as expanding rehabilitation opportunities and reducing the burden on both patients and medical professionals.

The 'Roadmap Award' is given to the one company that best embodies 'feasibility'. It evaluates the startup that most convincingly charts a path to 10 years in the future from the perspectives of technology, funding, team, and market.
