Message from the Chairperson

Toward the Realization of
Society 5.0 –Boosting growth potential through society’s digital transformation –

Chairperson/Kei Uruma

As Japan’s leading industry association in the digital sphere, the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA) covers the entire spectrum of technologies that underpin a digital society, from semiconductors and electronic components and devices to solutions and services.

Amid growing international uncertainty, boosting the growth potential of society as a whole through digital transformation (DX) has become absolutely essential for further energization of the Japanese economy and for the society and lifestyles of the future.

Recognizing the critical role of digital technologies, JEITA will work closely with member companies, other industries, the government, and related organizations to help resolve social issues and create new markets through these technologies, advancing societal DX.

As we continue to roll out a broad range of programs designed to realize Society 5.0, we look forward to your continued understanding and support in our endeavors.
