The National Institute of Biomedical Innovation (NIBIO) was established in April 2005, in the International Culture Park, Saito, Ibaragi City, Osaka, for the purpose to contribute to the creation of the innovative pharmaceuticals and the improvement of the national health.
We have promoted the action with close collaboration of organizations across industry, government and academia by making use of our strong point to be the only organization in Japan that performs totally by one stop "research, resources, and funding" with regard to the fundamental technologies such as the research and development of pharmaceuticals.
The close collaboration of organizations across industry, government and academia is necessary for the coordinated development of new medical technologies. Therefore, while collaborating with the administration, the clinical spot, and the local government, in addition to industry such as pharmaceutical companies and academia such as universities, we are committed to carry out opening innovation and contribute to people and society. We look forward to your continuous support, understanding and collaboration.
