To strengthen ties with Asia, which has come to play an important role in global business in recent years, the Fujitsu-JAIMS Foundation was established in Japan in July 2012. In April 2013, JAIMS moved its headquarters functions to the Fujitsu-JAIMS Foundation and embarked on a new stage of activity. Under a unique structure, with multiple virtual campuses forming a network, the Fujitsu-JAIMS Foundation works with the Hawaii campus (JAIMS) and its Asian partners to fulfill its mission of contributing to form a new community through human resources development and knowledge co-creation in the Asia-Pacific region, and by promoting knowledge collaboration that is flexible and multi-dimensional.
