External Initiative Participation

External Participation networks

In April 2025, we signed the United Nations Global Compact, a sustainability initiative proposed by the United Nations, and joined the Global Compact Network Japan, which is comprised of Japanese and other companies that have signed the United Nations Global Compact.
Established by the United Nations in 2000, United Nations Global Compact is the world's largest sustainability responsibility initiative that brings together the United Nations and the private sector (companies and organizations) to build a healthy global society. We support the United Nations Global Compact's 10 principles in the four areas of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption, and will incorporate these principles into our management and business activities to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society in cooperation with all stakeholders.

In June 2022, we announced our endorsement of the TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosure) and have been working on disclosing climate-related information ever since.
In February 2025, we joined the TCFD Consortium to strengthen our response to this initiative.
Following the establishment of the GX Future Consortium in April 2026, we continue to participate as a member and promote initiatives toward decarbonization through our efforts to address climate change, thereby contributing to the realization of a sustainable society.

Collaboration with External Organizations

We joined Tokai Pathways to Global Excellence (T-GEx) in May 2025. This program was launched under MEXT's "Strategic Professional Development Program for Young Researchers." It supports young researchers in pursuing self-directed career paths, whether as principal investigators leading international and interdisciplinary projects or as skilled professionals engaged in industry-academia collaboration and entrepreneurship. The program aims to cultivate role models and foster a positive cycle of talent development.
