At the OCCI, we are aiming to further Japan's bio technology industry, and are working on the discovery of Japanese and overseas business opportunities, the promotion of bio-venture startups, and the support of technological transfers in the industry among other things. In particular, the Japan Biotechnology Business Competition, which has been held ten times to date, has achieved steady results with more than 148 alliances between technology miner and technological proposer.
In July 2005, based on the aforementioned results and through the request of pharmaceutical companies, the study group consisting of 6 pharmaceutical companies and 1 each of a trading company, a financial institution, and a development business outsourcing institution was established and more ahead for developing the program that allows to introduce the technologies e.g. drug seeds, platform technologies effectively with efficacy.
In October 2006, prototype database lunched ahead of the developing the programme and since then demonstration experiment was held repeatedly for about 30 months to confirm the validity of the database.
In July 2009, Drug Seeds alliance Network Japan was started as full package programme composed of ODB and FAS.
