        Akira Yoshino, Honorary Fellow of Asahi Kasei Corporation, winner of the 2019 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, held a press conference at the Japan Press Club in Uchisaiwai-cho, Tokyo. Referring to the content of the lecture he gave before the award ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden, he expressed his confidence, saying, "I was able to send a reasonable message to the world on environmental issues. He predicted that innovations that combine many technologies will occur in 25 years, saying, "For example, lithium-ion batteries will be installed in automobiles, and by combining artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT), we will have a society of cars that is completely unimaginable today. It will be good for the global environment and the burden on individuals will be about one-seventh of what it is now," he said, describing his vision of the future society.
