About KOINE

KOINE is the abbreviation of Kyudai global Open Innovation Network Engine but is also an English word originated from ancient Greek to represent common language and common understanding.
KOINE indicates the framework of collaborative idea creation based on open innovation scheme by Kyushu University.
KOINE provides opportunities for its members to discuss complex problems in research, business, and society from many viewpoints of members with different backgrounds and disciplines. Eventually discussion forms the common basis for tackling such problems for everyone and could bring unexpected idea and means for solving problems.

01 KOINE meetings provide the opportunities for solving industrial/social problems.
