A Need for Change

In this day of globalization and rapidly changing issues,

cutting-edge ideas that offer substantial and lasting solutions are

the most important commodity any company has to offer. As we at

Konica Minolta continue the shift from being a pure manufacturer

to a solution service provider, we need to be as aggressive moving

forward as we are nimble, so that we can deliver the innovative

ideas that our customers so desire.

Though the challenges ahead may be great, by understanding our

group goals, the road before us is clear and direct.

Why Are We Here?We are a company with over 40,000 members around the world.

With such strength, comes great responsibility. As a company,

Konica Minolta is committed to a single purpose, both for the

benefit of our customers and for society at large. We refer to this

purpose as Our Philosophy.

The Creation of New Value

This is the reason we are here as a company and our single-minded

direction for ensuring growth as we continue to move forward.

What is “New Value” and how does it relate to me?

The Creation of New Value is not limited to the development of

new technology or worldwide ideas. It encompasses any

solution-driven idea that helps to improve quality of life, whether

for a single customer or for the benefit of mankind. This is what we

work together to accomplish.

Live By What We BelieveWith the global economy comes global competition. Meaning that

for every potential customer there are countless companies seeking

to do business. So why should customers want to work with us?

The answer lies within each of us, with the quality of our beliefs.

Since our inception and now with the recent re-organization of our

company into One Konica Minolta, we continue to refine our

corporate culture. It is based on past and present qualities of our

company’s story, which have been identified by members

throughout the world as the 6 values that delineate what we stand

for. When brought to life through our actions, these 6 values

become more than words.
