1. Process
Using the process reference model PLCOR as the foundation, we have integrated lean startup methodologies through customer development and defined an end-to-end process from business strategy formulation to launch. All of NEC's new businesses follow this process.

2. Evaluation system
The Global Innovation Unit at NEC, tasked with driving new business development, conducts performance evaluations using processes tailored to the new business division. Within the process of new business development, we conduct "process outcome evaluations" during the steps of business strategy formulation to business model creation, and "business value evaluations" during the steps from product development to business launch. Evaluating initiatives based not only on revenue and profits but also on progress and business value is crucial for the realization of new businesses.

3. Talent development
Talent development is essential for the realization of new businesses. We implement measures such as specialized training to enhance skills in new business development, expanding the freedom of career recruitment, and establishing a personnel education system specifically for new business developers, which involve changes in the system. Additionally, there is a community system that connects all business developers, fostering a culture of mutual learning where 1,600 experts share wisdom and experiences.
