Although NEC finished fiscal 2011 on a disappointing
note in terms of business results, we are starting to
see real progress toward the “V2012” objectives.
Examples include battery and smart grid initiatives in
new businesses, a stronger global business network,
and winning and implementing advanced cloud
computing projects. I would like to highlight some of our
main initiatives and progress in the pages that follow.
(1) Focus on “C&C Cloud Strategy”
NEC will pursue the “C&C Cloud Strategy” in three
main areas. The first area is the Cloud Service
business for providing secure and reliable services to
enterprises and governments. The second area is
the Cloud System Implementation business for
developing systems for enterprises and
governments to provide or use cloud services. The
third area is the Platform business for developing
foundations supporting the first two areas. NEC
aims to expand sales of “C&C Cloud Strategy”
related businesses, including outsourcing and
wireless broadband access.
In fiscal 2011, NEC reported net sales of
approximately ¥450.0 billion from “C&C Cloud
Strategy” related businesses, mainly reflecting
increased wireless broadband access sales, in
addition to sales growth in the Cloud Service
business, the Cloud System Implementation
business and other areas.
Specifically, NEC provided cloud services in many
different fields, such as core systems for local
governments and inter-hospital information sharing
