With our 2021 Mid-term Management Plan, we have advanced to a new stage, identifying five sectors where we can increase social, environmental, and economic value for our customers simultaneously: mobility, smart life, industry, energy, and IT. The five SDGs to which we aim to contribute through our business strategy are best aligned with these five sectors.
