The Kyoto University-Inamori Foundation Joint Kyoto Prize Symposium (KUIP) was inaugurated in 2014 to mark the Foundation's and Prize's 30th anniversary. Each year since it has brought together experts in three of the 12 fields covered by the Prize's main award categories: Advanced Technology, Basic Sciences, and Arts and Philosophy.
The fourth KUIP is themed "Art, Science and Technology to Inspire Dreams and Adventure", and highlights the three fields in which the 2019 Prize will be awarded: "Theater, Cinema" in the Arts and Philosophy category, "Materials Science and Engineering" in the Advanced Technology category, and "Earth and Planetary Sciences, Astronomy, and Astrophysics" in the Basic Sciences category.
The two-day program features lectures by 11 world-renowned experts -- eight from Japan and three from abroad -- and a kabuki performance by a children's troupe.
