Co-creation Front

We have established the “Co-creation Front” as a point of contact for private businesses to consult and propose public-private partnerships.
As for suggestion that we had, co-creation promotion section acts as bridge between everybody and each city hall department and performs examination and adjustment for realization.

There are two forms of co-creation front, "themed co-creation front" and "free co-creation front".

It is a mechanism that shows the theme from Yokohama City to private companies and recruits proposals and ideas for public-private partnership projects for that theme.
　▶ List of themes being recruited (updated from time to time)

①Proposal of public-private partnership and recruitment of cooperation companies
　　We are recruiting both proposals and ideas for public-private partnerships on the theme and cooperation companies.
②Recruitment of only proposals for public-private partnerships
　　In order for Yokohama City to determine policies and specifications for future projects, etc., it recruits only proposals and ideas for public-private partnerships on themes, and does not recruit cooperation companies.

Please see the list of themes being recruited, write required items on the "Proposal Sheet (Word: 20KB)" and send it to the section in charge of each theme.
　※It is also possible to attach the plan documents and materials together.

We will have a dialogue with the proposer at the responsible department that presented the theme and the Co-creation Promotion Section.
As a result of the dialogue, we will proceed with adjustments for realization and project implementation for those determined to be feasible.

　※Please note that there are several ways to realize this, depending on the content of the proposal and the results of the dialogue.
　　・Based on the proposal, implement projects in cooperation with the proposer
　　・We conduct examinations and selections for proposals and select and narrow down collaborators.
　　・With reference to the proposal, carry out procedures such as open recruitment to determine the project implementer again.

It is a mechanism that allows private businesses to freely propose business ideas that wish for public-private partnerships with Yokohama City regardless of the theme.
