In June 2024, the Intellectual Property Strategy Headquarters compiled a “New Cool Japan Strategy. “ The content industry was positioned as a key industry in the strategy.
The strategy includes the following future initiatives for the content industry: "Gather more substantial data for overseas expansion and accelerate the PDCA cycle," "Enhance overseas business development capabilities," "Promote structural reforms to accommodate digital business," and "Strengthen human resources to support the content industry.
In this era of drastic changes in various events, new educational and industrial resources created by the fusion of digital and content technologies with new creative power are essential not only for Japan but also for the international community.
Fortunately, Japan has the power of integration and innovation in industry, government, academia, and the private sector. The DCAJ will continue to work in an agile manner to be part of the new Cool Japan strategy by leveraging its network of member companies, universities, and government agencies.
With your continued support and cooperation, DCAJ will become more dynamic than ever before.
