Contributing to solving social challenges
The Ricoh Group is working to solve society’s
problems in two ways — “Contribution to
resolution of social issues through business
activities” and “Commitment to and responsibility
for social contribution.”
Our efforts to solve social issues through
business activities is one pillar called “Value-
creating CSR,” a strategy founded on the idea that
corporate growth can come about by contributing
to society. We study global issues to identify
opportunities to provide effective solutions
through our technology, products, services and
human resources, as well as through collaborations
with other stakeholders. These initiatives allow us
to tap into new markets, find new customers and
drive innovations that resolve or at least alleviate
global concerns.
The other pillar, social contributions, refers to
activities engaged by the Group or its employees in
selected areas of focus. These may include support
given to NPOs that are separate from our business
functions.
