1. IN2P3-KEK BEAST meeting in Strasbourg 19-20 January 2015 Philip Bambade Laboratoire de l’Accélérateur Linéaire Université Paris 11, Orsay, France

2. Principal features and information http://fjppl.in2p3.fr/cgi-bin/twiki.source/bin/view/FJPPL/WebHome Founded in 2006 by CNRS/IN2P3, CEA/IRFU and KEK to promote French-Japanese cooperation in high energy physics and related areas Renamed “Toshiko Yuasa Laboratory” in 2009 Support for  25 joint projects (topical workshops, visits, transport) GOALS: - exchanges of personnel, including technical staff - initiating and promoting new initiatives & ideas - joint training for junior staff and students Yearly project evaluations and general workshop (France  Japan)  May 2014, in Bordeaux, see https://indico.in2p3.fr/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=9691  20-22 May 2015, in OIST, Okinawa Bottom-up instrument  allows genuine knowledge of partner’s environment, conditions and methods  close collaborative relations Modest but dedicated budgets provided by IN2P3, IRFU and KEK act as incentive and provide useful context and “light” formal framework Benefits  coo-petition, visibility, credibility & basis for other funding
