NEC 2015 Annual Report Download - page 7

In April 2013, we announced our “Mid-term Management
Plan 2015.” The first year of the plan was positioned as a
year for preparation, the second set as a year for delivering
results, and the third positioned as a year for growth. In the
fiscal year ending March 31, 2016 (the upcoming fiscal
year), as the year of growth, we will focus on initiatives
aimed at accelerating our growth strategy and improving
our profitability.
In addition, we believe it is necessary to reform our
corporate culture to increase corporate value over the long-
term horizon. At the NEC Group, there is a deeply-rooted
culture of providing prominent value to each client in a
customized manner. However, to be competitive on a global
scale and grow our business, we must build up a single,
common platform that we provide to multiple customers.
Therefore, we will also work on establishing a business
model that will be integrated into our corporate culture.
In terms of our initiatives over the medium to long-term
span, we have concluded a partnership agreement with the
Tokyo Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic
Games, and NEC has become a Gold Partner for the Tokyo
2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games (Tokyo 2020). Tokyo
2020 is an opportunity for Japan to evolve into a mature
society, and also represents a chance for NEC to accelerate
its transformation into a social value innovator through
contributions primarily to Tokyo 2020's Specialist Public
Safety Equipment & Software and Network Equipment that
will help create a legacy* for solving social problems.
NEC provides biometric authentication technologies
including the face recognition technology, and the world's
first commercialized SDN-based network solutions. We will
leverage our track record in providing technologies as well
time, and the analytics are applied to forecast future events
and create dynamic solutions for our customers. Moreover,
these services can be provided to the customers remotely.

dynamism and remote properties, we provide social
solutions that contribute to the world through values of
safety, security, efficiency and equality.
as its know-how and cooperate with a variety of partners
to build a social infrastructure in 2020. Furthermore, we
will focus on legacy-building achievements while
accelerating the development and expansion of “Solutions
for Society” that aims to create a more advanced social
infrastructure through ICT.
As a social value innovator, NEC is committed to
delivering safety, security, efficiency and equality worldwide
to connect to our own growth. We will continue to create
new value to achieve our mid-term management plan and
realize our Group vision, together with the sustainable
growth of society and the NEC Group in the future.
