Recently, the company held a contest aimed at achieving a 100% internal usage rate of generative AI, gathering over a thousand innovative ideas and consequently accelerating a transformative culture within the organization.

Going forward, Hitachi Solutions aims to uplift not only its employees but also partners, customers, and the local community through collaborative initiatives with diverse stakeholders, contributing to a society where no one is left behind.
