We encourage every member of Goda Lab to make inventions and launch startups based on the inventions. The University of Tokyo provides various types of support for entrepreneurs and university-originated startups, such as entrepreneurship education, financial support, and incubation facilities. In the past decade, Goda Lab members and collaborators have helped launch four startups: CYBO, Cupido, LucasLand, and FlyWorks. We aim to continue to launch startups based on our research outcomes.
