Innovation

Nowadays, the world is on the threshold of enormous changes. The novel coronavirus infectious disease (COVID-19) accelerated the shift to remote work and education, and enhanced utilization of digital and virtual technologies. The interest in carbon neutral technologies and other environmental issues is growing on a global level. Furthermore, a variety of issues, such as the decline of the work force in advanced countries, are surfacing that cannot be solved through conventional measures.

At the same time, we are witnessing the birth and gradual spread of new technologies, mainly in the area of information communication technology (ICT). These include the advancement of network technologies represented by the 5th generation mobile network or 5G, the speedy development and expansion of AI, and the spread of IoT, a technology that connects physical objects over a wireless network. These new technologies are expected to help solve the diverse issues that the world is facing.

Against this backdrop, our company is committed to the goal of contributing to the solution of social issues through our three main business lines: the Connector Line, the User Interface Solutions (UIS) Line, and the Aerospace line. To this end, we formulated the following five priority areas for creation of social values and producing innovation in cooperation with our customers.

The first one is Connected Society, which will establish mutual connections between people all over the world. The second one is Safe Mobility, in which we will aim to realize mobility that is safe and can be used with peace of mind. The third one is Clean Energy, in which we will use environment-friendly energy. The fourth one is Industrial Innovation, which will contribute to efficient and safe production activities. And the fifth one is Air, Space and Ocean, through which we will embrace the challenges presented by the air, space, and ocean frontiers. We will engage in activities in these five priority areas.

Through our powerful pursuit of activities in these areas, we will contribute to the realization of sustainable society as outlined in the SDGs, the Sustainable Development Goals, which are shared by the international community. In order to provide customers with the optimal solutions in these areas, we shall not limit our efforts to the conventional product fields, but shall proactively engage in activities in new fields, such as compact high-performance antennas and flight controllers for drones. Also, we will advance technology development in all our business lines in order to contribute to innovative product development by our customers.
