We aim for the improvement in health and medical standards, and will disseminate the new system to the world.

Human history is a history of fight against disease. Thanks to the enormous efforts by forefathers, a lot of treatment methods have been developed. However, there are still many refractory diseases remaining, which have no conclusive means of cure. Also there are some medicinal products and medical equipments, which cannot be covered by insurance in Japan, since even if the treatment is found, it is not assured to be effective.

We, The Foundation of Global Health Care, is aiming to provide the means of cure to the patients who are suffering from incurable disease as quickly as possible. Specifically, an introduction of Japanese manufacturing technology, we think, is crucially effective for making a new path toward the treatment of incurable disease. In order to achieve this goal, we are developing the concept of establishing the Global Health Care Innovation Center where consists of clinical trial facilities, laboratories, educational organizations and each complex facility. In addition to consolidating the treatment of incurable disease, we propose a new health and medical system. Namely, a next-generation health and medical system for having a better life. Through the formulation of this system, thought, institution, operation of the health care in the health and medical area, we formulate the pragmatical system of the new health care based on the evaluation of the central facility and planning.
