INCS-CoE Vision
The Vision of the INCS-CoE is to work together in multi-stakeholder environment of Government-Private-Academia collaboration chartered by institutions representing three nations, the USA, the UK, and Japan and creating the environment for collaboration efforts where people meet and work together.
INCS-CoE Mission
The Mission of INCS-CoE is to pioneer efforts worldwide to address challenges created by the growing borderless digital society. Understanding that a single nation-state or one organization will not be able to solve the challenges on its own, the INCS-CoE will start with universities and grow to an academic-government-private collaboration.
