About SBIJ

Through security business forums and related initiatives, we integrate the needs of the security field—both in Japan and abroad—with technological seeds to drive innovation.

We also contribute to industrial advancement by conducting research and analysis in practical, real-world environments, including those overseas.

By fostering collaboration among industry, government, and academia, we provide opportunities for education, research, and hands-on business experience in both domestic and international settings. We also support the acquisition of globally relevant expertise and advanced technologies.

We connect security frontlines with corporate frontlines, enabling business professionals to gain a closer understanding of the needs and operational realities in the field. This helps create an environment where products and services can be developed to directly reflect frontline demands.

We also connect frontlines across different companies, breaking down fixed assumptions and encouraging a more open environment for innovation—thereby promoting the creation of new businesses and services.

By linking security frontlines in Japan and abroad, we are establishing a framework to monitor global trends in technologies, products, and services, and to support the development of optimal solutions that meet real on-the-ground needs.

We operate NSBT Japan, a comprehensive online platform dedicated to the security business. By delivering domestic and international news, expert commentary, event information, and video content, we are building a global community in the field of security business.

In collaboration with leading companies, organizations, and specialized institutions both in Japan and overseas, we organize exhibitions, conferences, and seminars. These events offer valuable business matching opportunities, enabling Japanese SMEs and startups to expand their presence domestically and internationally.

We also work closely with influential overseas partners to support participation in international exhibitions—including the establishment of Japan Pavilions—and to create opportunities for global engagement through international conferences, business meetings, joint research, and demonstration trials.

We provide a stimulating environment where young researchers and engineers can actively engage with international security business communities, acquire advanced knowledge and technologies, and refine their skills through hands-on experience.

We establish partnerships with security-related organizations both in Japan and overseas to facilitate personnel exchanges, promote technical cooperation, and create business matching opportunities.

Our support for the reemployment of retired Self-Defense Forces personnel goes beyond simply increasing the number of job matches by role. We aim to enhance the quality of this support by offering opportunities for retired personnel to connect with companies, leveraging their specialized expertise to act as bridges between the Self-Defense Forces and private industry, thereby helping to close the innovation gap.
