Our company has been certified as a ‘DBJ Future Value Co-Creation Company’ by utilizing the ‘DBJ Future Value Co-Creation Investment’ from the Development Bank of Japan Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Hirofumi Maki, hereinafter ‘DBJ’).

DBJ Future Value Co-Creation Investment is an investment program that aims to create ‘future value’—which integrates social and economic value—by having DBJ engage in regular, multi-year dialogues on long-term important management themes identified through DBJ’s unique management analysis framework.

This time, our company has set the dialogue theme as ‘Dialogue on Long-Term Management Strategies that Weave New Value.’ Through ongoing discussions with DBJ, we will work on strengthening our management foundation and enhancing information disclosure with a medium- to long-term perspective. We will also utilize DBJ’s multifaceted support, such as providing information and know-how for business expansion in resource recycling and disaster prevention, fundraising and M&A advisory related to adding value to domestic business and expanding overseas business, and discussions or advice on current management issues.

Through these initiatives, our company aims to solve social challenges through our business while continuously enhancing corporate value.
