This paper clarifies some characteristics of Japanese university spin-offs based on the survey of listed companies. Recognizing the significance of university spin-offs, in the late 1990s the Japanese government began to implement changes in legal and policy frameworks to encourage university–industry linkages. Consequently, the number of university spin-off ventures in Japan grew significantly. And then many university spin-offs are being created in the biotechnology and IT fields. Through case study, it examines the history, technology and critical development path of two Japanese ventures, Euglena and Soiken Holdings.
