Pave the Way for Future Generations

: Lights and Shadows

The explosive progress of science and technology has brought economic growth and enriched the quality of life, but also raised a number of challenges for society such as climate change and privacy in ICT. STS forum seeks to strengthen the lights and control the shadows of science and technology.

: Collaboration among Academia,
Industry and Government

No one country or constituency alone can solve the issues of science and technology facing the humankind. STS forum is a platform to form collaborative networks among global leaders in academia, industry and government in order for us to build a better world together.

: Long-Term Perspective

STS forum takes a truly long-term perspective of 100 to 500 years ahead, thereby seeking to foster sustainable society for generations to come.
