Management Message

I founded Nidec in 1973, when uncertainties were shrouding Japan’s rapid economic growth. Nonetheless, with a cheerful spirit and big dreams, I was determined to make Nidec a global company. The history of our passion for motors, and of overcoming difficulties together to turn our dreams into reality, is the history which has become the foundation of Nidec today. Now, as a global business enterprise, Nidec leads technological innovation, engaging in not only its initial business of motors but drive technology and many other fields as well.

To commemorate its 50th anniversary, we changed our company’s Japanese name from “Nihon Densan corporation” to “Nidec corporation” on April 01, 2023, to make a fresh start for our next target of the 100th anniversary. Going forward, to achieve our plan of doing in business in 100 countries or more around the world, and constantly take on challenges to make Nidec the true global company, I will continue to monitor Nidec’s new management as a Representative Member of the company’s Board of Directors and the global representative of the Nidec Group, to ensure that the new group management system functions smoothly. By delegating day-to-day operations to Mr. Kishida, the company’s Chief Executive Officer, I, as Nidec’s founder, will dedicate my efforts to instructing others to ensure that the corporate culture we have nurtured for the past 50 years will be passed on to future generations throughout the Nidec Group.

Your continued support and cooperation would be truly appreciated. Thank you.

For the past 50 years, Nidec has grown driven by our passion. Going forward, I am determined to push Nidec to the next phase of growth by meeting our stakeholders’ expectations.

Amid changes in the global market and the environment becoming increasingly complex, the Nidec Group actively engages in decarbonization, reduction of energy consumption, automation, logistics revolution, and other common issues for all humanity, focused on developing its businesses in growing markets related to semiconductor, AI, motor, and other expanding business fields. Thus, organically and by way of M&A, Nidec aims to achieve its consolidated net sales target of 30 trillion yen by the fiscal year of 2030.

Based on the “Made in the market” policy, Nidec has its production bases globally. We deliver to our customers comprehensive services in such areas as quality and delivery lead time. Additionally, we meet the needs of our customers for not just motors but system solutions such as control circuits and software as well.

The Nidec Group’s global action guidelines are: “Be global & diverse: Share and respect different opinions to go forward,” and “Be open & transparent: Expose both of your strengths and weaknesses, communicate with others heart to heart, and complement each other to achieve the true alliance.” To realize a sustainable society, we are poised to redouble our efforts, remain innovation-focused, and take on challenges as One Nidec.
