Guideline on Field Trial

The King Salmon Project has established a successful model of collaboration between Public (Government) and Startups that can be used as a reference for other municipalities and startup companies, and has prepared a guideline for the implementation of subsequent field trial.

Local governments that aim to solve administrative issues by collaborating with startups and startups that aim to tackle social issues by collaborating with the government using their own solutions, should use this as a guideline when considering the content and initiative of the field trial.
