SSI (Sustainable Social Infrastructure) is a next-generation social infrastructure that promotes individual happiness by ensuring safety and security for when life expectancy reaches 100 years.
We aim to solve four global social issues -building a resilient society, designing voices of the Earth, creating smart cities, innovation- to create the foundation for the realization of SSI.
Team Tokyo Tech is a front runner in contributing to the realization of SSI through cooperation with companies and industries.
Within the strategic fields that Tokyo Institute of Technology has established to gain world-class excellence, Sustainable Social Infrastructure (SSI) is a pioneering project aiming to realize next-generation social infrastructure that ensures safety, security, and happiness in this time when a life expectancy of 100 years is becoming a reality.
As a core element for the promotion of SSI, we established SSI Team Tokyo Tech consisting of researchers and research supporters throughout Tokyo Tech to perform strategic studies with the goal of solving global social issues related to SSI.
We hope to have your continuing support and cooperation for Tokyo Tech’s SSI projects.
