Fujikura Group Revamps Corporate Philosophy and Materiality

Fujikura Limited, led by President and CEO Naoki Okada, has announced a significant update to its corporate philosophy, known as MVCV, along with a comprehensive revision of its materiality framework. This initiative is designed to pave the way for sustainable growth as the company embarks on what it views as a "Fourth Founding" period starting in fiscal year 2026, coinciding with the rollout of its new mid-term management plan for 2028.

In light of this transitional phase, Fujikura aims to redefine its strategic direction and core values clearly. The renounced MVCV highlights the company's commitment to its foundational principles of “spirited entrepreneurship” and “Fujikura technology.” The new mission focuses on contributing to customer value creation and societal advancement through its unique technology, termed “Connecting Technologies™.” The associated vision emphasizes the organization's goal of leveraging global manufacturing capabilities to support the achievement of a digital society and a carbon-neutral future.

Additionally, Fujikura has established basic values deemed critical for employees, which include Innovation, Motivation, and Communication. These core values will serve as guiding principles in the company's operations and future growth strategies.

To complement the refreshed MVCV, the organization has completely overhauled its approach to materiality. Moving beyond traditional corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices, Fujikura now seeks to address social challenges through its business activities, aiming for sustainable growth. By undertaking a thorough review of stakeholder expectations and changes in the social environment, the company has identified new important issues that will be prioritized for long-term corporate value enhancement.

Fujikura's commitment to integrating the revised MVCV and materiality into the company’s culture is unyielding. This will be accomplished through widespread dissemination and embedding of these principles into daily business operations and management decisions. The aim is to foster sustainable growth across the entire Fujikura Group.

With an emphasis on innovation and responsible corporate behavior, Fujikura is poised to take on new challenges and opportunities that will emerge in the upcoming years. The company's renewed mission and vision are expected to propel them forward, enabling them to become a key player in addressing global needs while remaining committed to their core values.
