[Free Webinar] Accelerating Idea → Verification in the Future of R&D

We will be holding a seminar in collaboration with Stockmark inc

Seminar Overview

Driven by the push for a low-carbon society, digitalization, and diverse customer demands, the criteria and requirements for manufacturing are evolving. This presents an opportunity, leading more companies to aim for new product development and its commercialization.

As companies embark on these new developments, a sense of speed has become crucial to gaining an edge over competitors. This trend is no exception for R&D departments, which are now tasked with improving development efficiency to achieve earlier commercialization. Specifically, there's a growing need for both generating more promising development ideas and rapidly experimenting with and validating those ideas.

In recent years, companies are increasingly using Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a way to make research and development more efficient. This involves leveraging vast amounts of data for information retrieval and simulations, leading to significant changes in the R&D process.

In this seminar, two companies specializing in leveraging the latest AI for more efficient research and development will introduce cutting-edge techniques to enhance the accuracy and speed of R&D. We'll use the example of solid-state battery development to illustrate these concepts. Furthermore, we will showcase the products offered by each company through practical examples and discuss the future of R&D.

Recommended for:

・Those considering optimizing research and development operations.
・Individuals involved in developing new products or materials.
・Anyone interested in R&D processes that leverage cutting-edge technology.
