Canon
With our heritage of transformational strength, we are redoubling our efforts toward grand strategic transformation.
Around the world, technological innovation, as exemplified by IoT and AI, continues to advance at an incredible pace. In addition to the digitalization of existing products and services, there is a need to optimize business itself for the digital era and the very nature of industry is now undergoing major changes.
Canon has cultivated and achieved business growth by continually transforming ourselves through our enterprising spirit and the San-ji (Three Selfs) Spirit to create new value in response to the changing times. Canon´s history has been one of undertaking challenges and transformation.
In our five-year medium-to-long-term Excellent Global Corporation Plan Phase V, we have pursued a grand strategic transformation as we reorient our core businesses from B2C to B2B. Employing such methods as M&A centered on our four new businesses—commercial printing, network cameras, medical and industrial equipment—we are on track to successfully complete this transformation of our business portfolio and are now expanding each of them in pursuit of new growth. In our existing businesses, which include cameras, office multifunction devices and printers, we are developing products and services suited to the modern age, further increasing our market share by incorporating the latest technologies in such areas as the cloud, AI and IoT.
Under our corporate philosophy of kyosei, Canon seeks to become a truly excellent global corporation that is admired and respected around the world. Going forward, we will continue to work together as a Group toward completing grand strategic transformation.
We look forward to your continued support and cooperation.
