Founders message

Our goal is to realize a "Sustainability Revolution."

This revolution targets more than just solving environmental issues, but to give a positive change to economic gaps and poverty.   "Sustainability Revolution" is about realizing a sustainable future, in which the next generation can live peacefully and prosper on our beautiful planet.   Agricultural, industrial, and digital revolutions, that began in the latter half of the 20th century have changed human life. There has always been new value creation and innovation, that has enabled rapid development.   We will continue to drive innovation globally with "Technology x System x Values," and take on the challenge of realizing a "Sustainability Revolution."
