The New Business Development Group works on valuable solutions to customer requirements through a combination of original research, project planning, and the introduction of new technologies.
We also carry out R&D to establish our technological value in the market and to develop future technology trends that are valuable for our customers.

Changing Business Portfolios

The New Business Development Group takes up the challenge of changing business portfolios to achieve the group's profitable growth.
In new business creation, we pursue business development based on the strategy of achieving profits in new areas of expected market expansion.
Not only the existing technologies of the Teijin Group but also the rapid introduction of new technologies are required to build new business for the future.

Creation of New Customer Value

With the aim of creating valuable products for customers, we have incubated technologies and established the Teijin Technology Innovation Center (TIC) in Iwakuni in 2008. This new center conducts corporate R&D and equips research teams for project promotion, together with the newly introduced Open Laboratory for the promotion of joint research projects with universities and companies.

Exploration and Basic Technology Research For the Future

To maintain our competitive edge in technological innovation, the core technologies of the Teijin Group must be outstanding. In an age when scientific technology is becoming more specialized and technological fields more integrated, we are aggressively conducting exploration and basic technology research as corporate R&D. To this end, we aim to further improve joint research and pursue R&D based on scientific evidence.

Industry-Academia Cooperation (Joint Research with Universities)

In developing advanced technologies, the Teijin Group has formed more efficient and effective partnerships with universities for the sharing of resources in joint research. We focus on network construction with both domestic and international universities as well as the cultivation of human resources that can produce innovations in cutting-edge integrated fields.
