The Japanese Society of Agricultural Machinery and Food Engineers (JSAM)
The JSAM Symposium “27th TECHNO FESTA”
Strategic management of research and development in the agriculture and food engineering
The Techno Festa, which started in 1996 with the aim of improving technical skills and stimulating socialization and friendship among engineers and researchers in the field of agricultural machinery, is now in its 27th year. The Techno Festa symposium will be held online as a means of preventing the spread of the novel corona virus.
According to the theme of this year’s symposium, the importance of IP strategy in R&D will be discussed in the keynote speech. We hope that those who are involved in R&D on a day-to-day basis, as well as those in the IP department and management who support R&D, will attend the symposium and make it as an opportunity to promote strategic R&D in the agriculture and food engineering.
