<p>In this paper, "chances," encountered in the course of trial & error, and "serendipity," the handling for the chances, are discussed and their related empirical research is reviewed. What is important in the course of trial & error is obtaining unexpected results, in other symbolic words, the encounter of "chances." This academic consideration presents the interpretation that the chance in trial & error is a kind of fluctuation phenomenon caused by some unstable state in the course of random probability. "Serendipity" is, on the other hand, cognitive actions anchoring the chances to some value or benefit. Here, the relations among serendipity, trial & error, and chances are graphically demonstrated. Serendipity should be took advantage of not only in the conventional fields of science and technology, but also in social or organizational context. It has an aspect leading to anti-paradigm choice. The empirical research presents that the important factors to serendipity generation, effective promotion factors and paths differ depending on the type of serendipity.</p>

<p>We present new leadership style in co-creative communication with considering Try & Error. Try & Error in this paper means "interaction" which adjusts "cognitive deviation" among members and leads to consensus, and it is an implicit try & error as a leadership role which brings innovative result in a team. We adopted experimental workshops by setting team structures and speech protocols to verify hypothesis which was found in our previous studies, that is "Mutual influence between two leaders creates team achievement." A small autonomous group was assumed as the research premise. As a result of the analysis, the hypothesis was verified. A series of interactions occurred among members in the experimental group during co-creative workshops, and we found a new leadership style which caused the interactions effectively. It means that as one of leadership in co-creative communication, the leadership causes mutual influence between two leaders, and then leads members participation and consensus for the team's successful output and raises members' satisfaction level as a result. In the situation, implicit try & error works which esteems and recognizes the others' opinion with integrating the own opinion to create a team's decision making, that promotes consensus and co-creation. It is a leadership influential power that adjusts "cognitive deviation" for making a consensus and bringing a satisfaction of members.</p>

It is attempted to develop a theoretical framework for a strategic shift in a conventional big business. First, a concept of Strategic Innovation Capability is defined, which is the capability of a company as a system to shift the corporate strategy by innovation, and compared with foregoing theories including Dynamic Capability, Major Innovation Dynamic Capability, and Breakthrough Innovation Capability. Second, the concept is applied to a case study on Nippon Telegraph and Telephone's (NTT's) strategic innovation to establish a competitive edge in the broadband market, for which the top management identified promising products, services and business models and deliberately presented them as challenges to the company's traditional strategy, competence and corporate culture. Theoretical and practical implications of the case study are discussed. The article is concluded by future tasks for the study.

"Pop-Science" (Popular Science) is a "culture" that does not share the norms of the scientific community. The author believes it was established in the U.S.A. during the 1920s and 1930s when science magazines were published that became the model for the present ones. Several factors have marked the rise of "Pop-Science" the first being the view of technology as "The application of the sciences to the useful arts". The development of electrical engineering by inventors who had not received a university education was another important factor that shaped "Pop-Science". Further, the images given rise to by the so-called "Future Boom" in the 1930s - when much research from industry and academia went along economic policies to stimulate consumption by suggesting images of future cities and consumer durables - were spread by popular science magazines.

This paper explored the factors leading to the success of publicly-funded private R&D projects by analyzing survey data obtained from 506 projects supported by NEDO (New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization). We particularly examined how involvement of both the funded firm and the funding organization in the project affects the project's commercialization performance.Our analyses showed that the project with higher strategic importance and stronger executive's involvement tended to be successful since it enabled the project to effectively leverage company's internal resources. On the other hand, funding organization's involvement had positive effects on performance only when the company showed low commitment to and weak involvement of the project; it had no or rather negative effect on performance with higher commitment and involvement in the company side.Our findings suggest that the success or failure of the publicly-funded private R&D is greatly related to the strategic position of the project within the company. This implies that the assessing the company's in-house factors besides potentials of the technologies is important in selecting funding projects, and that the funding organization should find an appropriately way of managin g the project depending on project's strategic position.

In the "first financial engineering boom" in the latter half of the 1980's, Japanese financial organizations tried to introduce advanced financial technologies developed in Europe and the U.S., and recruited many science/engineering students. Although this boom was short-lived and vanished with the end of the "bubble economy", research efforts in this field were maintained until the advent of the "Japanese financial big bang", or attempts at radical reform of the financial system of the country, including opening up the market to other countries. This triggered a second boom, in which science/engineering schools, traditionally aloof from finance, began joining field. Following a brief summary of this development and the present states of financial engineering, the author presents a proposal on future curriculum in this field.

This article reported on the latest industry-level activities and national policies of Industrial IoT in US, Germany and Japan.All of the three countries positioned the development of Industrial IoT in the higher-level policies to make solutions toward social challenges, but their approaches are different. US takes an approach from IT, based on their remarkable IT competency and data analysis techniques. On the other hand, Germany and Japan take an approach from manufacturing, based on their manufacturing factories in the world. Those Industrial IoT-related activities establishes a partnership with each other and also with other players like China to bring their own advantages together.It is considered that there are at least two common elements among the activities. One is the marketing that the function is much more enhanced to reduce uncertainty of market and technology and explore partnership. The other is "value co-creation scheme" such as reference architecture and test bed which enables members to design a new ecosystem beforehand from the perspective of open and close strategy.

In the past 20 years, Japan's innovation eco-system surrounding industries have been dynamically changed. The most eminent ones are various institutional development for facilitating collaboration among industries and academia for more co-working and co-creation, and encouragement of start-ups and other forms of open innovations. On the other hand, there is a view that "Disruptive innovation is stagnated in Japan compared with other countries," and it is true that US and European companies take an advantageous position in new business creation in the field of ICT, such as AI, big data, and Fintech, although some of their technologies are Japan in origin. Under such a circumstance, the authors summarize the current situation and challenges of Japan's innovation eco-system surrounding industries, for achieving important agenda such as Society 5.0, Sustainable Development Goals of United Nations, and activation of local economies, then compile policy implications and proposals.

This paper proposes current issues and proposals from a financial perspective for the research infrastructure (facilities and equipment) of Japanese national universities.National university facilities are aging, but there is no funding from the country that matches depreciation costs, and there is no mechanism for funding reserve like private universities. Acquisition of research equipment at national universities is mainly funded by external funds, but there is no mechanism to reserve internal funds for disposal or renewal. Due to the difficulty of disposal and renewal, research facilities are increasing and aging.In the future, what needs to be done financially to maintain and renew the research infrastructure at national universities in Japan is to clarify future investment plans and collateral of financial resources at the facilities, and a mechanism for internal reserves that utilizes indirect costs and other expenses at the facilities It is. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen asset management at national universities.

Japan's machine tool production was in the top position for 25 years since 1982, but decreased in 2009 by 56.5% from the level in the previous year, lowering the rank to the third and yielding the top position to China. The technical level of the machine tool industry in a country is indicative of its technology base. What happened in the competitiveness of the sector of strategic importance even for its relatively small market? Examination of the official trade statistics up to 2008 permitted to discern the trade structure of machine tools in East Asia and Japan's position in it. It was revealed that Japan has always enjoyed export surplus in this sector, indicating its technological competitiveness intact. The author argue that a coevolution mechanism between the NC equipment and machine tools has been at work as an important factor that supported the development of Japan's machine tool industry.

Research performed at universities and public research institutions are crucial for the creation of new industry and for the enhancement of quality of life of the people. It contributes to improve the scientific literacy of the people and to develop human resources for research by stimulating scientific curiosity of the people. However, it is pointed out that research capability in Japan has been declined in recent years. In this paper, analyses of current situation of research activities at universities and public institutions are presented. The discussions made in this paper include the followings: (1) recognition of situation of research activities, (2) research funding, (3) governance and evaluation of universities and research institutions, (4) research performance, (5) human resources. Several recommendations for the improvement of research capacity in Japan through comparison with major overseas countries and through analyses of current research systems in Japan are presented.

This article overviews the past Science and Technology Basic Plans and foresees what should be taken into consideration as a framework for the next plan. The challenges left by the past plans include system-level reforms of the public research sectors, demand-side policies such as start-up grants and public procurement, cross-sectoral human resource exchanges and development policies, and sharing the policy-related information among various stakeholders. The 6th plan needs to include improvement of the quality of management in order to increase the productivity, as Japan's research capabilities are predicted to decline in a decade. Also to be included in the 6th plan are new innovation policies that transform social system with making governance more agile and moving to the use of social experiments with monitoring policies.
