Message from the President and CEO

In our more than 120 years of history, NEC has nurtured world-class technologies and the capabilities to implement those technologies. In 2005, NEC became a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact, a global initiative aimed at sustainable growth for society and companies, and has since been building its sustainability management foundation based on the UN Global Compact’s Ten Principles pertaining to the fields of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption.

We have a responsibility to transform these strengths into the concrete values of safety, security, fairness and efficiency from the standpoint of the consumer, and continuously deliver these values to society---To fulfill this Purpose of NEC, we endeavor to connect digital technologies and human hopes, and to implement a vision of a brighter future world. This is in line with our commitment to contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by strengthening our engagement with all other stakeholders.

Value Creation Process

NEC’s corporate activities begin with recognizing social issues based on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), megatrends, and feedback from customers and society. From there, we cultivate strengths unique to NEC through technological development and co-creation with various stakeholders to resolve those social issues. And by leveraging these strengths, we create the social values of security, safety, fairness, and efficiency. In regard to the social issues we are addressing and the impact of these social values, NEC is confirming the specific targets for each of the 17 Goals of the SDGs and verifying its progress.
