Overseas Mission to Japan on Biomaterials

The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) supported a UK Overseas Mission to Japan between 26 January and 7 February 1998, with The Institute of Materials acting as the sponsoring Body. The aims of the Mission, as covered in the report, were to explore the potential for co-operation between UK and Japanese companies, to enhance information on Japanese approaches to management and technology in this area, to disseminate the results of the Mission and to form contacts between key industries and personnel in the two countries.
