On October 1st, we established the "Software Technology Development Center" within the Nidec Shin-Kawasaki Technology Center in Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture, to consolidate software development across the entire group.

In addition, we have positioned our research and development base in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India, directly under this center, strengthening global collaboration.

The aim of this initiative is to evolve from simply providing components (individual parts) to a "solution business" (problem-solving business) that incorporates modularization and integration with higher-level systems.

By concentrating the group's technologies and expertise, we will accelerate development speed and promote the development of higher value-added systems.
