Last summer at SMO、we released a list of companies on the prime market that have a distinguished “Purpose”. Many Japanese corporations have been following the lead, with companies such as HIS, Epson Group, Kanro, Glico, MIRATH HD. (Former Takara-Reben), Tsumura Group, Dentsu Digital, Toshiba Data, Nikkei Group, Nittetsu Solutions, PILOT, and Mixi being some of the many examples.

*For 1839 companies in the prime market, SMO researched every company’s corporate philosophy and created a “PURPOSE STATEMENT LIST 2022” of ones with an official “Purpose”. The list can be downloaded here（The list is as of June 2022).
