第一回 シンガポール-関西 スタートアップ商談会を
12月7日(火)に開催しました
エンタープライズシンガポール(ESG)と協力し、シンガポール発の介護・高齢化関連のスタートアップ5社に登壇いただくイベントを開催しました。シンガポールは日本と同様に高齢化が進んでおり、その中でさまざまな新しい技術が開発されてきています。見守り技術としては、カメラを使うものが一般的ですが、カメラはプライバシーの侵害の問題があり、設置を嫌う場合があることと、そもそも設置できない場所があります。そこで、叫び声や激しい咳をAIで認識する技術や、温度を認識する技術がスタートアップから提案されました。また、屋内搬送ロボットや脳波を解析するスタートアップに加え、キノコ由来マイコプロテインを使ったゆで卵を販売するスタートアップが登壇し、注目を集めました。
