We will continue to challenge without stopping. Shimadzu has inherited the pioneering spirit of its founder for nearly 140 years since its founding in 1875, and has been developing its business with the corporate motto of "contributing to society through science and technology." In order to advance science and technology that contributes to the development of our customers' fields and to realize our desire for "health of people and the earth," we will continue to take on challenges without hesitation, overcoming the difficulties that we face with all our wisdom. We are proud that we have been able to carve out a long history by receiving the evaluation of "Shimadzu of technology" from many customers because of our dedication. The world is changing rapidly now. We are grateful to our customers for their support, and we are working hard every day with the aim of further contributing to society, with a philosophy that will not change even in times of change. Due to the progress of globalization in recent years, many regions have achieved economic development, but in order to realize a society where everyone in the world can enjoy a happy life, securing safe energy that supports affluence, Maintaining a global environment where people can live with peace of mind and preserving social infrastructure that enables continuous development are major issues. In addition, as a result of the gradual clarification of the mechanism of life and advances in medical technology, the life span of humankind has increased by more than 10 years in the last 40 years. On the other hand, there are still many diseases for which no effective treatment has been found. In order to help solve these issues, we will swiftly grasp what is required by our customers and society, and make use of the unique technology created by refining the technological capabilities cultivated over our long history. , We talk to each other and inspire ourselves to create new value that realizes that wish. It is our desire and pride to continue to contribute to the happiness of people by promoting the development of science and technology while actively transforming ourselves. We believe that the challenge is to always aim for a higher level and continue to make unremitting efforts without giving up, without being bound by the current framework. I want to be healthy and live with peace of mind. Shimadzu will continue to take on challenges in order to realize the dreams that people and society envision.
