Under the Group Mission of "Contributing to Society through Healthcare", Terumo has contributed to advancing healthcare together with patients, medical professionals, and diverse stakeholders for over 100 years.
Healthcare today is facing major changes due to increase in chronic diseases owing to aging populations and the evolution of new technologies such as genomic medicine, digital technology, and artificial intelligence. Furthermore, as the world continues to face the COVID-19 pandemic, there is increased need for medical systems to be sturdy.
In response to these changes, Terumo defines that Terumo's Purpose is to contribute to advancing healthcare and enhancing patients' quality of life. Terumo's Purpose is positioned to be a message that expresses the company's long-term growth direction based on their Group Mission. By openly communicating this purpose to society, Terumo hopes to create joint value with medical professionals and business partners.
Terumo holds "From Devices to Solutions" as its vision in the 5-Year Growth Strategy (GS26) which started from April 2022. This vision embodies the company's determination to continue to solve challenges of medical settings amid major paradigm shifts. Terumo will shift focus from "product-centered perspectives" to "customer-centered perspectives" and create valuable solutions together with medical professionals and business partners based on quality, technological capabilities and the innovation brewing backbone that Terumo has cultivated over the years.
