The NU Tech Technology Roundtable series is a flagship technology marketing initiative by Nagoya University (NU) and its U.S.-based technology transfer office, Technology Partnership of Nagoya University, Inc. (NU Tech). This program is organized in collaboration with local universities in the Research Triangle Park (RTP) region of North Carolina.
The Roundtable series aims to foster connections and strengthen networks among university researchers, entrepreneurs, startups, and business representatives from both major corporations and local companies. It provides a platform to showcase cutting-edge technologies from Nagoya University and partnering local universities in North Carolina, promoting innovation and collaboration.
The inaugural Roundtable took place in October 2010, in partnership with North Carolina State University, with a focus on plant and agricultural technology. Since then, 14 Roundtables have been successfully held in RTP, covering diverse topics and technologies.
