Overview of Research Group, Goals and Purposes:

Member:	Industrial Users Community of Practice, or IUCoP, is a group of SPring-8 users who utilize any of the industrial contract or public BL’s for industrial application research. The IUCoP also welcomes any SPring-8 users who conduct experiments under the research proposals approved in the ‘Industrial Category’.
Objective:	The CoP wishes to optimise business outcomes from SPring-8 applications of the industrial practitioners by: Facilitating the members to share status of leading capability at each individual BL and technical benefit from the capability, Discussing improvement areas of specific measurement techniques, Communicating common obstacles to the optimum uses of the SR capabilities and capacities to SPRUC, and Sharing successful examples of internal/external communication to encourage sustainable use of SPring-8 by companies. The CoP would also sense expectations to top-notch capabilities in SPring-8 II.
Activity:	Examples of vehicle of the IUCoP could be the following events: Each individual user’s voice at the BL in use Annual Joint Conference on Industrial Applications of SPring-8, jointly organised by the entities listed above, and Seminar series of Communities of Interests in the Industrial Users Society of SPring-8 (IUSS).
