Introduction
At the IBIDEN Group, we publish our Integrated Report with the aim of informing shareholders, investors, and other stakeholders about the Group's medium- to long-term initiatives toward value creation.
In this report, we have compiled financial and non-financial information comprehensively with a focus on initiatives to enhance sustainable corporate value, and have summarized our value creation story and specific initiatives to realize our medium- to long-term strategy. Given the achievements and issues of the previous medium-term management plan, this year's integrated report specifically explains the new medium- term management plan formulated in FY2023, including our approach to human capital management, which is one of the reinforcement activities of the new plan strategy.
In preparing the report, all sections of the company work together in good faith, going through deliberation and approval by the Management Council of its contents and subsequent reporting to the Board of Directors.
We will continue to disclose information to our stakeholders timely and appropriately and engage in dialogue with you to facilitate further understanding of the Group.

Introduction
Changes in Creating Value
IBIDEN's technology stems from hydroelectric power generation. The Company has expanded into the electrochemical business with the aim of utilizing electric power efficiently and has incorporated a variety of technologies such as high-temperature sintering technology, chemical synthesis technology, and printed wiring board layering technology. Changes in our technologies have been steadily inherited by the current Electronics Operation and Ceramics Operation.
