Since urban-type research parks first began to open in Kyoto, Kyoto Research Park has had a track record of boldly facing the challenges of a changing world. KRP has worked to draw out the most appropriate and flexible capacities of private companies, targeting growing industries such as IT, digital content, medicine, bioindustry, and nanotechnology. To date, KRP has attracted a total of around 250 firms through its efforts to promote the upgrading of business environments in terms of both hardware and software.
With cooperation and partnership among Kyoto Prefecture, Kyoto City, and local
industry, Kyoto Research Park opened in 1989 as the nation's first privately-run
research park. It was established in order to support firms that intend to pioneer
new fields and to contribute to the development and vitalization of local industry
by offering creative R&D environments and a variety of services.
 Kyoto is known as a "city of academia" that is home to forty universities, including
Kyoto University. It is also a "venture city" represented by blue-chip companies
such as Horiba, Ltd. and Kyocera Corp. Taking full advantage of this environment
and developing academic-industrial exchanges and cross-industrial interaction,
we provide support for establishing business foundations. Our activities include
information gathering and the creation of networks of personal contacts. We
work to build up a broad range of networks involving information, the business
environment, administrative institutes, and research parks in Japan and abroad.
Monitoring current economic and industrial trends at all times, we offer a one-stop
service for entrepreneurs and top management who aim at starting new businesses.
We provide access to a concentration of public industrial institutes offering
managerial and technological support, counseling on patents, human resources
support, and cross-industrial exchanges, among other services. We also offer
support for the rapid development of new equipment and software to meet the
needs of companies engaged in emerging fields.
Kyoto Research Park continuously aims to serve as a base for the generation
of new industries through the intersection of people, information, and businesses
based on the locational and intellectual advantages of Kyoto.
