VALUE OF CASIO PRODUCTS
World of joy that Casio products envision
TIMEPIECE
A world where everyone can
enjoy their own style with confidence
We think style refers to three essential elements
— mindset(how you think), lifestyle (how you live), and action (what you do).
Style is infinitely diverse, with enough room for every person to combine these
elements in any way they like.
If a style doesn’t have a name yet, no worries. We work with users to create an
atmosphere that recognizes and encourages new styles. That’s how, together,
we build a world where every person can enjoy their own style.
SOUND
Creating a World Filled with Smiles
Through Sound Experiences
Sound exists in a range of forms in our daily lives.
That sound can bring us joy... peace of mind... at times, even discomfort... and move us emotionally.
Performing music you didn’t think you could, for instance, is gratifying.
Encountering sounds you have never heard before opens new worlds.
Connecting with someone through sound brings more joy to life.
We aim to bring the joy of sound experiences — the fun, the comfort, the pleasant sensations —
that you hadn't thought you could have, or didn’t even know existed.
These daily life experiences fill the world with smiles.
EDUCATION
A world where anyone can
find learning enjoyable
Curiosity makes you want to learn more. By taking action to learn, reaching a conclusion,
learning something new and using that knowledge,
new curiosity is formed.
We believe this “chain of curiosity”
is what makes learning enjoyable.
However, it can be difficult
to keep the chain going on your own.
We are aiming for a world
where anyone can find learning enjoyable
by boosting the source of learning: curiosity.
Fill the world with
new joys
We engage with the individuals who make up society,
taking up the challenge of creating a world filled with joy.
Moflin, a smart companion with a heart as animated as if it were actually alive, lifts spirits and warms hearts. Casio aims to drive progress in the mental wellness sector.
From essential sound production for music, film, games, animation and other content, to platforms that bring more fun to livestreaming by connecting streamers and listeners, our service brings new joy to the creator economy.
Taking sound creation to the next level, this audio recipe app helps guitarists achieve their ideal sound, bringing even more ways to enjoy playing guitar.

Through the power to put

My impression was that, while the purpose retains the essence of the substance and words we discussed, the final phrasing has transformed these into something new. Hearing the underlying meanings, I see that each word is open to several interpretations, so the purpose serves as a signpost that can be understood from different perspectives by people working in different positions at Casio.

The purpose expresses clearly the value that generations of Casio products have delivered up to now and the value we want to deliver in the future. This resonates with me, and I think it’s very persuasive. My thought was that I want Casio to be a company that is a close presence in each individual user’s life and that continues to be loved by many.

Sharing Casio’s attitude of continuing to communicate with individuals one by one and of changing with joy will bring more internal and external co-creation, which will increase the potential for of new innovations.

People around the world will have more opportunity to experience small wonders and joy in their day-to-day lives, which will encourage a positive energy to take hold. I imagine Casio initiatives will not only improve people’s quality of life in five years or ten years, but will help build a society where everyone feels encouraged to take on new challenges.

I hope that all aspects of society will be filled with wonder and joy. I also believe that more and more people will lead fulfilling lives that allow them to grow, and society as a whole will take on a more positive outlook. I look forward to a world in which spiritual and material wealth can exist together—where life can be both stimulating and fulfilling and serene.
