President message

Greetings from Fujita Health University
It is a great honour for Fujita Health University to host the THE Asia Universities Summit for two years in a row, virtually in 2021 and in-person in 2022.

Since the university was founded, our philosophy has been “Our creativity for the people”, which means we encourage the creativity of everyone. We continue to advance clinical practice, develop human resources to contribute to society, and carry out research to make the world a better place.

Our academic programmes and research facilities correspond to the needs and challenges of society in the fields of medicine, healthcare and translational research. We also collaborate with the world’s leading academic institutions and industries to advance medicine and medical technology.

By hosting the THE Asia Universities Summit 2022, we hope to create new encounters with leaders in different fields across education, research and medicine. I hope that it will bring innovation not only to Fujita Health University but also to higher educational institutions throughout Asia. I am truly delighted to meet our friends and to get to know all our delegates.
