Hitachi marked the 100th anniversary of its founding in 2010. As we begin the next 100 years, Hitachi will by pursue growth in both global and Japanese markets, focusing on the Social Innovation Business, which is aimed at creating sophisticated social infrastructures based on information technologies.
Our goal is to keep our promises to our stakeholders and to society by rebuilding a strong Hitachi. We will strengthen Hitachi by adopting business models based on facilitating collaboration among information, power, and electrical industries at earlier stages of product and project development. We will enhance the businesses in which we are already market leaders and leverage areas in which we have leading competencies and innovative, cutting edge technologies. We will also continue to implement structural reforms throughout the Hitachi group.
"The transformation to becoming a truly global company" is inevitable and will accelerate Hitachi's future growth. Looking for global resources while also having the ability to meet local needs in each country or region in the global market are of the utmost importance. For the future, I believe that retaining more resources for engineering in each region and maximizing the performance of all employees in the Hitachi group are vital components necessary to lead Hitachi into the future and help transform Hitachi into a globally recognized company.
As business and the global economy changes, we will strive to adapt to the changing environment and live up to this commitment.
Hiroaki Nakanishi
President
