I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your support and cooperation in JAIMA's business.
To further strengthen JAIMA in a drastically changing world, JAIMA
will continue to focus on the following five areas in 2024: "Revitalize industrial association activities and strengthen cooperation", "Develop new technologies and new businesses", "Strengthen information dissemination", "Secure and develop active human resources" and "Further develop JASIS".
Recently, we have been pleased to see that companies outside the analytics industry have supported our efforts and joined us as new members.
To introduce more of our activities, we worked on developing a common data format so called "MaiML" for integrated management and operation of analysis data across the industry, which was established as a JIS standard in May this year.
We plan to promote these activities toward ISO standardization and actively participate in the global movement of the Digital Lab.
Furthermore, as for developing human resources for the next generation, JAIMA has been promoting exchanges with young employees as well as expanding their perspectives on social issues by participating in instrumental analysis courses in collaboration with academia, participated in analytical chemistry education programs and just completed the second term of the "young-mid career human resources workshop" for young employees of our member companies.
JASIS, which is positioned as the most important event of JAIMA, is expected to surpass last year in terms of size and scale, allowing visitors to confirm the latest analytical instruments and applications, and get access to information at various seminars.
We are also planning participation by startup companies in new fields such as digital data science and new materials, which have not been associated with JASIS in the past. JASIS WebExpo® will also be renewed to attract more visitors online.
In addition, JASIS Kansai will be held from January 29 to 31 next year. We hope you will look forward to JASIS 2024 and JASIS Kansai.
We will continue to make every effort to develop our association and the analytical instrument industry. We look forward to your continued support.
