After a strict screening process, the following five teams have been selected for the Science Castle Research Grant Asahi Soft Drinks Award 2024, which is being conducted jointly by Asahi Soft Drinks and LIVANES Corporation.

This year, we invited applications from junior and senior high school students across Japan under the theme of "research and development that will help solve social issues such as 'health,' 'environment,' and 'community co-creation,' and that will create excitement and smiles in the future.

In addition to providing funding for research expenses, each of the five selected projects will be advised by one researcher from Asahi Soft Drinks, along with a RIVANES staff member, who will provide consultation on how to proceed with the research. In December, each team will present the results of their research at a conference, providing an opportunity for the researchers to present their findings.

 Through this initiative, Asahi Soft Drinks and LIVERNESS will actively support future researchers by conducting educational activities.
