Congrats on the work anniversary!
Toru Nakagawa ==> Shireen Al - Jaouni Nov. 19, 2017
Dear Shireen, Thank you for your message and encouragement.
May I ask you a favor? Could you please let me know about valuable TRIZ (or wider in scope) Web sites around you in English (and in your native language)? Could you list up 5-10 of them together with brief introduction (in 2-3 lines)? I am eager to update my page of the TRIZ links in the world (which has not been updated since 2008, to my regret).
Thanks, best wishes, Toru
Alexander Theodor Narbut (Ukraine) ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 19, 2017
Congrats on your work anniversary — 19 years at "TRIZ Home Page in Japan! Good work in the long time... Best regards!
Toru Nakagawa ==> Alexander Theodor Narbut Nov. 19, 2017
Dear Alexander, Thank you for your message and encouragement.
May I ask you a favor? Could you please let me know about valuable TRIZ Web sites in the world in English and in Russian. Could you list up 10-20 of them together with brief introduction (in 2-3 lines each in English)? I am eager to update my page of the TRIZ links in the world (which has not been updated since 2008, to my regret).
Thanks, best wishes, Toru
Alexander Theodor Narbut (Ukraine) ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 20, 2017
Dear Toru, Of course, I'll help you. I think I can send this information after one week.
Also I'll send some news about using of the TRIZ in Europe (we told about it in KAIZEN Conference in Ukraine this month).
Best regards! Alexander.
Mohammad Reza Nouroozi (Iran) ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 19, 2017
Congrats on your work anniversary!
Toru Nakagawa ==> Mohammad Reza Nouroozi Nov. 19, 2017
Dear Mohammad, Thank you for your message and encouragement.
Could you please let me know about valuable TRIZ Web sites in your country in English and in Farsi? Could you list up about 5 of them together with brief introduction (in 2-3 lines each in English)? I am eager to update my page of the TRIZ links in the world (which has not been updated since 2008, to my regret).
Thanks, best wishes, Toru
Mohammad Reza Nouroozi ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 24, 2017
Dear Toru, Thank you for your message. I have searched Iranian website in Farsi about TRIZ but I could not find valuable website about it. Most of the websites in Google first pages are personal websites and YouTube channels or Wikipedia pages. There are some pages about innovation which has some contents about TRIZ and the other pages are just about the workshops and seminars about TRIZ.
By the way, irantriz.ir is just the one website, I have found in Farsi. This website just shows the news about TRIZ and innovation but has not been updated for a year.
Best Reza
Toru Nakagawa ==> 95 TRIZ Leaders (of 33 countries) in the world (WTSP Project Proposal 1) Nov. 21, 2017
Dear TRIZ Leaders, I am writing this message for asking for your consideration, help, and cooperation for the sake of TRIZ.
For these three decades, TRIZ has been proliferated widely in the world to the extent that various activities, achievements, and accumulated knowledge are not viewable easily. We know that many (global/regional) associations, industries, consultancies, academic groups, individual persons are making their TRIZ-related works open in their Web sites. However, the more abundant the works and individual sites grow, the more difficult it becomes recently for people to learn the overall view and to find good works useful for themselves.
A solution for releasing such a difficulty is to "Build a page of TRIZ Sites in the World' and to share it among many Web sites and to keep it up-to-date by the cooperation of many of you and your colleagues. ** snip **
Thus may I ask you for your favor?
(a) Could you please join an voluntary project of "Building a page of TRIZ Sites in the World"?
(b) Could you suggest any practical way to carry out such a project at your local level as well as at the global level?
(c) In a number of sites, such a list of TRIZ Links is already posted. So collecting them may be an initial step.
(d) Brief annotation of each TRIZ Site is necessary for people to select links useful for themselves. Please use the descriptions in my page as samples. Annotation may be detailed or short, depending on the extent, quality, usefulness, etc. of the site. At the end of annotation, please add your initial and the date of annotation.
** snip **
I sincerely wish your understanding and cooperation. Looking forward to hearing from you, Best wishes, Toru Nakagawa

Also, the links to CREAX are now changed to AULIVE (CREAX is only doing consulting, all software is on AULIVE)
Many thanks! Simon

Tan Runhua (China) ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 23, 2017
Dear Professor Nakagawa, Thank you for your e-mail for the "Build a page of TRIZ Sites in the World'.
I, myself, is so busy to do the things. But I do think that the work is important for the further development of TRIZ in the world. So I am trying to speak to the president of the university for the supporting, for example, giving my center a professional person to do this. Please waiting for my result.
Thank you! Tan Runhua
Toru Nakagawa ==> 95 TRIZ Leaders (of 33 countries) in the world (WTSP Project Proposal 1A) Nov. 24, 2017
Dear TRIZ Leaders, I am receiving positive feedbacks from several TRIZ leaders, with many thanks.
Organizing a cooperative project for Building a page of TRIZ Sites in the World and setting up practical and effective platform and procedures for carrying out the project are the important initial steps at moment.
I am thinking and preparing in the ways described below on a temporary basis and would like to get your suggestions, proposals, and cooperation. See the pdf files attached:
WorldTRIZSitesProject-Proposal1-TN-171121.pdf ==> See the page
WorldTRIZSitesProject-Proposal1A-TN-171123.pdf ==> See the page: Proposal 1A: Let’s Cooperate with the platform of TRIZSites.bitrix24.com
Looking forward to hearing from you, Best wishes, Toru Nakagawa
Oleg Kraev (for Yuri Salamatov) (Russia) ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 24, 2017
Dear Professor Toru Nakagawa, Dr. Salamatov who is TRIZ Master agrees to join this project.
With the best regards, Oleg Kraev TRIZ expert
Toru Nakagawa ==> Simon Dewulf, Darrell Mann, Valeri Souchkov Nov. 25, 2017
I am writing this mail personally for asking for your support of the World TRIZ Site Project. I received positive answers from several people. **snip** I am sure you all will join the project and contribute to it.
For these few days, I visited many sites in my list page built in 2008 and was shocked because nearly half of them are not active. And I know that there are a large number of Web sites have emerged later and working actively. I tried to find pages of TRIZ Links in various sites, but obtained only a few.
In these situations, I believe it necessary to organize the project smoothly by using a groupware system Bitrix24. I already started the platform at TRIZSites.bitrix24.com with a FREE account, which allows only 12 users. For us a Standard Cloud account with unlimited number of users for 99.00 USD/month is much desirable. I am going to move to the Standard Cloud account using my personal budget at moment.
I am not good at organizing and operating a big project. So please give me any suggestions and advice, either personally or openly. Best wishes, Toru
Nina Defounga (Germany) ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 25, 2017
Great Work! Best Wishes from Berlin. Cheers Nina
Nikolay Shpakovsky (Russia) ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 27, 2017
Dear Dr. Nakagawa, thank you for the letter and invitation to new project. Of course it is interesting for me and my team.
Area of our interest is practical work with problem solving. As far as you know I was working for SAMSUNG full-time during 4 year and for POSCO part-time (7 years).
As result we are developed some new approaches to problem solving and evolution of Technical System.
The problem solving approach is based on classical TRIZ and General Theory of Strong Thinking (OTSM), developed by Nikolay Khomenko. Our fractal algorithm (Algorithm of Improving Problem Situation) is effective enough, easy in using and studying. You could see it in article attached to the letter.
We developed some tools on the base of the algorithm. They are:
1. Training course (in PPT presentation).
2. Monography (teach book) in problem solving OTSM-TRIZ. Approaches and practice of application (in Russian)
3. Software Solving Mill
4. Distance training course TRIZ-trainer
The second area of my interest is evolution of Technical System.
In this direction we developed effective way of organization of patent and technical information - Trees of Technology evolution.
I have a book printed on Amazon. Trees of Technology evolution. New ways to business opportunity (in English). 
If I can be useful for your project I'm ready to joint to it.
Have you good time.
I remember the time when you visited Minsk with your wife. (Ref. Nakagawa's Trip Report (1999)) Best regards,
Nikolay
Toru Nakagawa ==> Nikolay Shpakovsky Nov. 28, 2017
Dear Nikolay, Thank you very much. Your message of your recent work is very interesting for me. May I post it later in the 'From the Readers' page of "TRIZ Home Page in Japan"?
Your collaboration in the "World TRIZ Sites Project" will be helpful indeed. Thanks. Could you please try to describe your site(s) using the Template as shown in Proposal (1B)? And give me any feed back.
Best wishes, Toru
Toru Nakagawa ==> 95 TRIZ Leaders (of 33 countries) in the world (WTSP Project Proposal 1B) Nov. 27, 2017
Dear TRIZ Leaders, Receiving backups by a number of TRIZ leaders/colleagues, I am preparing for starting our World TRIZ Sites Project effectively. Here are some announcements:
(a) Symbol mark of our project is set as you see below.
(b) Our working platform is set at https://TRIZSites.bitrix24.com/ using the Bitrix24 groupware system of Standard Cloud plan, where an unlimited number of users are acceptable.
(c) Documentation system is initialized in the platform, having a hierarchical system of folders, templates and samples of site description, and guidelines for description and opening to public.
(d) Invitation of TRIZ leaders/colleagues and organizing the project on the voluntary basis are under the way.
This document ‘Proposal 1B’ concerns to (c) Documentation system and explains how to use the Bitrix24 platform together for describing individual TRIZ sites and lists of them. See the pdf file attached: WorldTRIZSitesProject-Proposal1B-TN-171127.pdf ==> See the page: Proposal (1B) Guidelines of Describing TRIZ Sites and Their Lists
We wish to get your help by joining this project. Looking forward to hearing from you, Best wishes, Toru Nakagawa
Simon Dewulf (Australia) ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 27, 2017
Hi Toru, What about using Wikipedia for the platform, maybe as a subset of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRIZ ?
Thanks simon
Toru Nakagawa ==> Simon Dewulf (CC: Darrell Mann, Valeri Souchkov) Nov. 27, 2017
Dear Simon, Thank you for your message.
Using Bitrix24 groupware system for a week, I am very confident that it is much better than Wikipedia for our platform. My Proposal (1B) sent to you (and 95 TRIZ Leaders) just now will convince you in this point.
Fortunately, Bitrix24 offers 'Cyber Monday' special sale of starting the commercial plan for 50% Off for 24 months commitment. (Sales is only Today! they say.) So I have already bought it (Standard Plan)!
I wish to have your support! Simon, Darrell, and Valeri, Without your support and collaboration, this Project will not succeed ! Best wishes, Toru
Simon Dewulf (Australia) ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 28, 2017
Hi Toru, All good. Let me know if/when you need anything
Best regards simon
Valeri Souchkov (Netherlands) ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 27, 2017

Darrell Mann (UK) ==> Toru Nakagawa Nov. 28, 2017
Dear Toru, Apologies for my delay in responding to your mail, I needed to wait until my news was official before offering to help with your World TRIZ project. That has now happened, ** snip **
I believe there will be great synergy between what you are planning and what we want to do, and so I wholeheartedly support your initiative and we will do all in our power to support you. ** snip **
No doubt we will be in contact again soon. In the meantime, I applaud your continuing passion and support for the TRIZ World.
All the best darrell
Toru Nakagawa ==> Darrell Mann Nov. 28, 2017
Dear Darrell, I am very happy receiving your message and the big news. ** snip **
My proposal of the World TRIZ Sites Project completely matches with your intention and plan. I will push my Proposal forward to make it a real activity for coming half a year (this is my temporary expectation of the length of work).
Best wishes, Toru

Our Symbol Mark is slightly revised as shown below. And a Banner of our Project is also designed for a smaller flat space as required in the Bitrix24 site.
The present document (1C) is the proposal for organizing our Project Team, at the philosophy level. Our philosophy of team organization has been mentioned already in the Proposal (1) and (1B), and is clarified some more in this Proposal (1C). Please refer to the pdf file attached: WorldTRIZSitesProject-Proposal1C-TN-171129.pdf ==> See the page: Proposal (1C) Organizing the Project Team
I am sending this Proposal (1C) to you 95 TRIZ Leaders. Reflecting any feedbacks from you, I am going to set up our Bitrix24 platform some more. Hopefully sometime next week, you will receive our official Invitations to join the 'World TRIZ Sites Project'.
We sincerely wish to be able to work with you in the new Project for wider and better proliferation of TRIZ.
Together ! Connected !! Best wishes, Toru Nakagawa

Dear Prof. Nakagawa! Dear Colleagues! I have registered at Bitrix24 system and tried to see https://TRIZSites.bitrix24.com/ But I cannot get access and cannot see the forms to put necessary information about my web-site. Could your specialists to help me in further operation with https://TRIZSites.bitrix24.com/ ? Thank you in advance. With best wishes, Michael Orloff
[Note (TN, Dec. 15, 2017): The problem mentioned here was solved today after communicating with Bitrix24 support. The Public Link I got on Nov. 25 (and shown in my announcements) did not work well due to unknown reasons. I now get a new Public Link for everybody to access the Open Pubic Main Folder: https://trizsites.bitrix24.com/~GZOEV ]
Toru Nakagawa ==> 95 TRIZ Leaders (of 33 countries) in the world (WTSP Project Invitation) Dec. 4, 2017
Dear TRIZ Leaders, As I have been communicating with you for these two weeks, we are now ready to start a new cooperative project ‘World TRIZ Sites Project’. Summarizing the proposal of it, we wish you to join the project and cooperate with many TRIZ leaders/colleagues in the world. Please refer to the files attached. ==> See the pages: World TRIZ Sites Project: Proposals: Volunteer Project for Connecting TRIZ Sites in the World; World TRIZ Sites Project: Its Plan and Invitation
Some of main points are:
(1) We use a groupware platform in the Internet. https://TRIZSites.bitrix24.com/
(2) You (and any of your TRIZ colleagues) are invited to join the project. Please open your user account at the platform by accessing with the URL: https://trizsites.bitrix24.com/?secret=8e5wo0yl
(3) Please fill in the Membership Application Form (in .doc) (attached here) and send it to me via email.
(4) Documents of Proposals (1)(1A)(1B)(1C) and Invitation are recorded in the Open Public Main Folder. Anybody can access them with the URL: https://trizsites.bitrix24.com/~j3koj [Changed into: https://trizsites.bitrix24.com/~GZOEV (Dec. 15, 2017)]
(5) Templates and samples of describing individual TRIZ site and a list of the sites are made and stored in the Open Public Main Folder (and attached here).
(6) Please try to walk around in the platform to get familiar with very rich functions of Bitrix24 system and methods of handling the documents. A lot of demonstrations in video are available, and FAQ and help support service are very useful for us to learn various operations.
(7) Please try to write your own (and other nearby) Web sites by using the template and upload them to the platform. Such description work is our initial (and also final) task to do in this project.
(8) It is a good idea for you to ask your TRIZ colleagues in your country (or other) to describe their own TRIZ sites in our format (or in your native language) and to send them to you. You may upload the site description files to our platform as contributions by those people.
(9) After receiving Membership Application Forms from many of you, we would like to build our voluntary team by assigning some roles. Hopefully before the holiday season.
(10) Please feel free to tell your questions and suggestions either by email or with the communication tools in the platform.
We sincerely wish to be able to work with you in the new Project for wider and better proliferation of TRIZ.
Together ! Connected !! Best wishes, Toru Nakagawa
PS: I have some difficulty in the mail server to send mails to many people together. So this is just sent to you. Could you please try to open your account in the Bitrix24 platform?

Ellen Domb (USA) ==> Toru Nakagawa Dec. 5, 2017
Dear Toru: Many good wishes for the success of your new World TRIZ site Project.
As you can see from the “membership application” I will not be an active participant. My husband and I are living on a boat and spending most of our retirement time at small islands with limited internet—I did not get any of your earlier e-mails about this project, but of course you have been talking about earlier versions for a while (maybe the Lisbon ETRIA conference? Maybe earlier?) I am delighted that your concept has come to life and that you have found a technology platform to make the information accessible to people world-wide.
The PQR Group TRIZ training and consulting business is now managed by David W. Conley, who is also the new co-author of the 3d edition of “Simplified TRIZ” and the former world TRIZ practice manager for Intel. I will forward the invitation to Dave and to other TRIZ colleagues.
I hope you and your family have a happy, healthy, and peace-filled New Year 2018. Ellen
Kai Hiltmann (Germany) ==> Toru Nakagawa Dec. 6, 2017

Detailed information about the Project is shown, just as posted in "TRIZ Home Page in Japan" (on Dec. 9) in English and in Japanese. Voluntary participation in the Project is invited, showing 3 types of involvement, i.e., (a) Contributor in Japanese (outside the Project), (b) Member working in Japanese only, and (c) Member working in English and in Japanese.

Dear Professor Toru Nakagawa, I am Professor Luo's student, she asks me to send you the letter for her, and the following are her words:
"I am so happy to receive your letter. First of all, thank you for your contribution to TRIZ research and promotion. I'm sorry to say that I have reached the retirement age this year. I am retired now. So, lots of things maybe are not very convenient to do. In addition, we Northeast University has an innovative approach to research and teaching website, but only in Chinese. No one is doing the English page now. I don’t know whether it is suitable for the project. I will think about it very carefully, and will give you the decision as soon as possible. Best wishes," Lingling Luo

I wish you all the best for coming 2018! With my respect, Michael Orloff
