3. Our social innovation promise
Our business was bound together by Hitachi founder Namihei
Odaira’s belief:“Contribute to society through the development
of superior, original technology and products.” This belief has
been handed down to the Hitachi Group today to form
Hitachi’s Mission.
More than 100 years have passed since Hitachi completed its
first 5HP electric motor, which embodied the aspirations of its
founder. Through the years, the Hitachi Group has seen and
responded to significant societal changes and the evolution
of industrial frameworks around the world.
And through it all, the Hitachi Group has resolutely stood by our
Mission and Values and endeavoured to better respond to social
issues through industry-leading technology.
At times in our history, we’ve had to make changes to our own
business structure in order to adapt and respond to these
evolving needs. Over the years, the Hitachi Group has supplied
power generation systems, railway systems, home appliances,
computers, electronic devices, electronic materials and
components, construction machinery and much more.
And today, as a result of our depth and breadth of experience,
the Hitachi Group is now in a prime position to drive our Social
Innovation Business on a global scale both now and well into the
future. Using advanced Information Technology (IT), the Hitachi
Group is able to provide social infrastructure to the world while
continuing to drive innovation that will improve convenience,
comfort and safety in people’s everyday lives.
In the UK, Hitachi Consulting were awarded the Oracle Excellence Award: Eco-Enterprise Innovation in
