The Government of Japan launched its 6th Science, Technology, and Innovation Basic Plan in March 2021. This Basic Plan furthers the nation's goals of developing a human-centric "Society 5.0" which blends cyber and physical realms to enhance economic growth and social solutions. The plan seeks to enhance Japan's digital infrastructure, promote data sharing across sectors, and ultimately support sustainable development and resilience. It emphasizes the role of open data, data collaboration, and data linkage in building digital twin infrastructures, data collaboration mechanisms, and a research data collaboration platform.
