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.

The Kansai region offers an excellent environment perfectly suited for partnering in areas ranging from exploratory research in drug discovery to production and sales of pharmaceuticals.
