Message from the Chairperson

As an industry association representing Japan in the digital field, the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA) plays a key role in advancing our industry and the Japanese economy.

Today in 2024, over 75 years since our original establishment as the Wireless Communications Equipment Industrial Association, JEITA has evolved into a body that brings together the electronic components and devices, electronic equipment, and IT solutions companies that underpin a digital society, as well as firms in industries utilizing digital technologies, working across business types and industries to solve social issues.

Amidst the rapid social uptake of artificial intelligence (AI), it is essential that we find a balance between the convenience and ethics of AI as we endeavor to resolve social issues and achieve social wellbeing. Society must be advanced not just through individual efforts but also using the power of co-creation, and JEITA too will do its utmost as a party in that co-creation.

JEITA aims to create digital technologies, improve the business environment, enhance industrial competitiveness, and, of course, to realize Society 5.0. To that end, we urgently need to accelerate society’s digital transformation (DX). JEITA will work closely with member companies, the government, and related organizations to solve social issues and energize the Japanese economy, contributing to the society and lifestyles of the future.

We look forward to your continued understanding and support in JEITA’s endeavors.
