Biophotonics Design (BPxD)

Utilizing photonics to commercialize therapeutic devices manufactured in Japan on a global basis

Biodesign, a program that originated at Stanford University, has garnered worldwide recognition for its problem-driven innovation approach in the development of medical devices. This approach involves generating solutions to issues by primarily examining the needs of the medical field. A key feature of this approach is that the commercialization outlook is verified from the very beginning of the development process. This "Biodesign" approach is combined with our photonics technology application business creation support program and targets not only medical devices but also biotech devices. 

There are various processes involved in the development of photonics-based medical and biotech devices. The BPxD will support your business by forming a team consisting of experts from various fields, including universities and other institutions of higher education, manufacturing companies, local governments, support organizations, and financial institutions.
