Ichibei Furukawa, the founder of Furukawa Group, left words "Value employees. Value customers. Value new technologies. And contribute to society."We have inherited the founder's belief as the genes of the Group. For 137 years since the foundation, we have worked to "protect human health and the health of the social infrastructure, and support growth."The founder's belief has a lot in common with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by the United Nations. As a member of society responsible for the future, we will continue to adhere to this belief.

Based on the founder's belief and the SDGs, the Furukawa Electric Group has formulated the “Furukawa Electric Group Vision 2030” which sets the year 2030 as its target in a backcasting.I firmly believe that accelerating our efforts to achieve Vision 2030 and implementing ESG management will become the foundation on which the Group contributes to the sustainability of society.For achieving Vision 2030, we concluded that the important management issues (materiality) for the Group were the “Creating of businesses that solve social issues”,“Developing of business activities that consider climate change,” “Strengthening human capital management and organizational execution abilities,” and “Building a governance system to strengthen risk management.” Therefore we intend to promote “Open, Agile, Innovative” and “Building partnerships with various stakeholders” as the action principles of the Group.

In a world that is shifting rapidly including the crisis caused by the new coronavirus infection, the Group will continue to change to become a sustainable corporate group to provide safety and expectations to all stakeholders. We will develop the Group enthusiastically and energetically with "passion, persistence, and pride" to contribute to achieving a truly affluent, sustainable society.
 

We hope that we can count on your continued support.
