new customer value, and broaden the scope of our business.
That is our scenario for expanding in the near to medium terms.
Over the medium to long terms, we seek to continue
strong growth by developing new businesses that draw
on our outstanding technological potential. This potential is
particularly robust in environment and energy and in health,
security, and safety, areas that are poised for paradigm shifts.
An excellent example is OLED lighting, in which we are striving
to commercialize opportunities by employing the technological
assets that we have accumulated in photo film.
Becoming Essential to Society
W e must fulfill our social obligations and contribute to
communities if we are to earn society’s acceptance and prosper.
Our primary mission as a manufacturer is to take action
to prevent global warming. Recognizing that minimizing CO2
emissions as well as conserving resources are important issues,
we launched our Eco Vision 2050 to pursue specific reductions in
Group CO2 emissions. But cutting is not enough, and we aim to
employ core technologies to innovate, as we are doing in OLED
lighting, helping to resolve environmental problems.
M y mission as Konica Minolta’s leader is to resolutely execute
MANAGEMENT POLICY <09-10> and produce results. As I
mentioned earlier, that means making us sufficiently robust
to achieve strong and ongoing growth while becoming
essential for world society, thereby creating an entirely
new Konica Minolta.
I dedicate myself entirely to grasping the essence
of the issues facing us, strategically and boldly
addressing them to decisively increase Konica
Minolta’s value. Stay with us as we tackle the
challenges of change in the year ahead.
