Feature “Omron in China”
China is geographically 26 times larger than Japan, its popula-
tion represents one-fifth of the world population, and it has
become the world’s top automobile manufacturer. In 2010, China
is expected to surpass Japan in terms of nominal GDP to
become the world’s second largest economy. China’s impor-
tance continues to grow as a driver of the global economy.
Moreover, China is still looking forward to full-fledged growth
stages for its inland regions.
Companies around the world are currently eyeing the Greater
China region, encompassing China and Taiwan, not just as a
manufacturing region but also as a demand region (i.e. mar-
kets) promising ongoing growth. Omron got a major head start
by developing operations in the Chinese market 30 years ago.
This report outlines the deep involvement of the Company’s
Industrial Automation Business (IAB) in the manufacturing
industry and the Healthcare Business (HCB) in the lifestyle in
the Greater China region.
