The International University of Japan, with the support of Minamiuonuma, held a symposium entitled “The Future of Food, Agriculture, and Community in the Digital Age” as a part of the Top Global University Project.
Seven presenters, including Mayor Hayashi of Minamiuonuma, and eight panelists discussed, with a focus on Minamiuonuma’s chief industry of agriculture, digital transformation and industry development and community building by using regional resources. Individuals from different positions in industry, government, academia, and the private sector who practice new agriculture and regional revitalization gathered alongside local citizens to share opinions and issues faced by the community while looking forward to the future of food, agriculture, and community.
