" International Cooperation Toward the Realization of “Smart Platinum Society” "

These challenges include the solution of problems in economic activity, the social security system, citizens' lives, and local communities. There has been an increasing expectation for the network power of ICT, which can overcome the barriers of distance and time, as a driving force to solve these challenges.
