The Institute for Advanced Biosciences (IAB) is the main institute of the Tsuruoka Town Campus of Keio (TTCK), which was established in collaboration with Yamagata Prefecture and Shonai area in April 2001. The IAB does not only work as an excellent institute for a biological research but also focuses to capitalize upon the outcome of university-level research, resulting in the appearance of several venture companies in Tsuruoka City. In this session we introduce the reasons why this drastic change was come true in a small provincial town and discuss the suitable strategy for a revitalization of our country Japan with Director General of IAB, Prof. Masaru Tomita, and COEs from the world-class companies and venture companies in Tsuruoka area.
