Kashio Kazuhiro,
Director and Chairman
Creating New Value Through Transformation and Innovation
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone who makes use of our products and services and to all the other supportive stakeholders we have.
Since our founding, we have placed value on the concept of “Creativity and Contribution,” our corporate creed.
This translates to a commitment to being of benefit to the world by leveraging our unique strengths to the fullest degree to continuously create new culture in keeping with the changing times.
Through creativity for contribution, we aim to be a company that continues to create new value in the forms that are most important to those who depend on our products and services as an integral part of their lives.
To continue achieving this in a sustainable manner, we have defined the reason for our existence in our Purpose — Through the power to put wonder at hand, bring new levels of joy to lives one by one — and established our Values as the worldview and convictions necessary to realize our Purpose. Anchored by our Purpose and Values, each individual employee continues to take on the challenge of transformation and innovation with passion to create new value for society.
