Presentation of a Japanese Cluster - PMK initiative

The Kansai region (Osaka, Kobe and Kyoto metropolitan areas) is the heart of Japan’s biotech industry and is home to top biomedical clusters that are open to the international community.

These clusters feature many pharmaceutical companies, medical institutions, bio ventures, and research institutions.
