【Statement】
Since our daily life is fully supported by a variety of the ICT, R&D activity should be deployed with a view to human, society and global environment even more deeply. The IEICE takes the central role in R&D activity about Electronic Engineering and Information Communication, and is anticipated to respond quickly to the rapid change of the ICT field. Furthermore, the IEICE is expected to lead R&D activities and launch new challenges from the widely varying viewpoints.
I would be very honored if I could help the IEICE as a board member. I will promise to make a remarkable effort to meet the needs of IEICE with all the members’ challenge spirit.
