Two is better than one. The month of November proved to be an inspiring one for colleagues of Hitachi and its group companies as we saw the occurrence of two townhall meetings by two key Hitachi Executives.
Managing Director of Hitachi Asia Ltd., Mr. Takatoshi Sasaki kickstarted the townhall with his opening address
With border restrictions eased, the first townhall saw President and CEO of Hitachi, Ltd., Dr. Keiji Kojima, visit Singapore to deliver his key message.
The event on 18 November 2022 saw a total of 117 participants from HAS and 14 Hitachi Group Companies (GrCs) gather in the auditorium of the Japanese Association Singapore (JAS). Kojima-san delivered his message and shed light on how companies should work towards achieving the goals laid out in the 2024 Mid Term Management Plan (MTMP), with the focus cemented on Green, Digital, and Innovation.

Bringing all 14 GrCs together and establishing an open dialogue, Kojima-san took on questions from the attendees alongside the Chairman of Hitachi Asia Ltd., Mr. Kojin Nakakita. Through their responses in the Q&A session and closing remarks, Kojima-san and Nakakita-san once again aligned Hitachi employees towards the 2024 MTMP.
