Enhancing “Experience Value” to Address Healthcare Challenges

Hikaru Samejima
Chief Executive Officer
I would like to thank you all for your continued understanding and support of Terumo Group's business activities.
Looking at the current environment surrounding healthcare, we face various challenges such as strained medical resources, the shortage of healthcare workers, and the advancement of personalized medicine. To address these challenges, Terumo has set forth the vision of “From Devices to Solutions” in its five-year growth strategy, GS26. Rather than simply providing medical devices, we place greater emphasis on enhancing the “experience value” delivered to healthcare workers and patients.
To realize improvements in “experience value,” it is important to consider combinations such as device-to-device, device-to-pharmaceuticals, and device-to-training. For example, Terumo is jointly developing with pharmaceutical companies a solution that combines medical devices with drugs that previously required intravenous administration in medical institutions, with the goal of enabling convenient and time-efficient administration at home. This initiative is a clear example of enhancing “experience value,” contributing to reduced burdens in medical settings and increased value of pharmaceuticals.
Alongside these strategies and efforts to create and enhance value, we believe that the corporate culture is equally important. Many associates at Terumo believe in our group mission of “Contributing to Society through Healthcare” and cherish “Core Values,” which are the common values that associates base their behavior. To further strengthen these assets, we support associates who challenge themselves with new endeavors and strive for personal growth. We also promote the practice of “Growth Mindset,” which is the belief that one’s abilities and talents can be developed through experience and effort. We are committed to creating a workplace where associates of different genders, nationalities, backgrounds, and generations can engage in open and lively communication, enabling us to discover growth opportunities beyond conventional boundaries through more flexible thinking.
Thank you all for your continued understanding and support.
