Introduction of tissue engineering products and processes to those experienced in the UK and elsewhere. The solutions to the problems associated with these barriers are not obvious and it would appear that the tissue engineering community in Japan is not necessarily in any better position to resolve these issues. Nevertheless there are several signs of significant changes in recent years with respect to their traditions and it is possible that Japan will emerge as a leading force in the globalisation of tissue engineering. The Royal Academy of Engineering organised a Mission to Japan in April 2003 which had the objectives of studying the complex issues surrounding the commercialisation of tissue engineering products and processes. This report summarises the findings of the Mission. Overall the members of the Mission were impressed by the quality of the basic science that is underpinning Japan’s tissue engineering programmes and the extent of government and institutional support for the emerging tissue engineering industry. There is no doubt that Japan faces very similar barriers to the successful commercial introduction of tissue engineering products.
