The Sakata-Mori Laboratory, led by Professor Ichiro Sakata in the Department of Technology Management and Strategy at the University of Tokyo's Graduate School of Engineering, possesses cutting-edge expertise in technology management within fields such as innovation and sustainability. The project aims to integrate this with the Corporate Public Relations Strategy Institute's research and modeling expertise in the communication domain, and Hotlink's social media data and AI-based analysis technology.
The research will utilize AI to extract and analyze "social issues and innovation challenges" that garner high interest on social media. Concurrently, surveys will be conducted among policy stakeholders, including Diet members, to clarify the impact of social media public opinion on social consensus formation and actual policy development.
