In Japan, private firms have engaged in a large number of joint research projects, with the government promoting and supporting these projects by building up systems for support such as the Research Association for the Mining and Manufacturing Industries created in 1961. Recently in European countries and in the United States, many joint research projects have also been initiated by private firms, and there is a strong interest in the experience of the Japanese programs.At the same time, it is recognized that an increasingly important policy issue is that of attaining equivalent access to resources of innovation such as knowledge, technology information, and market funds. In particular, demands from abroad for access to research conducted by private firms is increasing.The purpose of this research is to investigate and analyse the trends of firm participation in joint research and to search for means of resolving the problem of the access. For this analysis we have focussed on a set of joint research projects supported by the government.We find that in the research association system, joint researches by dissimilar types of industries rather than similar types of industries has been increasing. There has also been an increase in projects supporting generic technologies.In the 1970's, R&D relating to electronics, mechatronics and big system technologies increased, and in the 1980's programs emerged which addressed new materials and biotechnology. In recent years, projects targeting generic technologies have received priority, with the research involving the combination of many industrial sectors.In the similar types of industries, the major firms and the diversified firms are well represented in joint research projects. These projects are devided into two groups: projects in which major firms of the similar industries participate, and projects in which only one of the major firms participates.
