To achieve a society where all can live together,
where all can live fulfilling lives.

Panasonic wants to create a society where
Universal Design allows everyone to be their best selves.

Disabilities, age, nationality, gender, values,
lifestyles, working styles, family composition….

We want to create a world where we all respect the differences between us as part of what we are,
to allow us to strive to achieve our goals.
To allow us to dream big, dream freely.

We will push to achieve this
through technologies and ideas.
And we will foster a wealth of values through
dialogues with a diverse range of peoples and societies, and the planet itself.

We believe a future no one could imagine will be
born from freeing our individual potentials.
