Advanced capabilities cover generating equipment, systems and services in
nuclear, thermal and hydroelectric power generation, power transmission and
distribution and system monitoring. As Japan’s leading energy systems
supplier, the company is enhancing its competitiveness through alliances
with Japanese and international partners, and extending business to the
global stage.
From its leading position across a broad product range, the company is focus-
ing on network devices, digital consumer equipment, mobile devices and other
growth markets. As it bolsters its line-up of discrete components, high-value-
added memories and system LSIs, the company also pursues strategic al-
liances that pave the way to joint development of next-generation products
that will strengthen its competitive edge.
Strategic support for high-value-added products incorporating LCDs, SED,
rechargeable batteries and other key devices point the way to growth. As it
ramps up production capacity for polysilicon TFT LCDs, the company looks to
the future with the development of OLED panels and other next-generation
products. In its battery operations, the company specializes in lithium-ion
rechargeable batteries, essential components of mobile products.
Technological excellence translates into an overwhelming share of the Japanese
market for diagnostic imaging equipment and systems, such as diagnostic X-ray
systems, CT systems, MRI systems and diagnostic ultrasound systems, and a solid
base for continued growth in the world market. Close relationships nurtured
with customers support the company in providing optimized medical systems
solutions that combine PACS, hospital information systems and ASP services.
Market-winning refrigerators, washing machines and other compact home
appliances are designed and developed from the customer’s perspective.
A move into the global market is reinforced by technological alliances with
leading global manufacturers that support moves to boost Toshiba’s brand
equity in China, other parts of Asia, Africa, the Middle East and elsewhere.
