EWAY Future & Beyond
Under “EWAY Future & Beyond,” the 5 years from FY2021 are “EWAY Future,” while the term from FY2026 is “EWAY Beyond.” At the same time, the main participants to whom Eisai should make a contribution have been expanded from “patients and their families” to “patients and the general public.” In addition to the desire of “empowering The People to realize their fullest life,” we will promote the creation of science-based solutions focused around Eisai Group’s biggest strengths in the areas of neurology and oncology. Through these activities, we will efficiently achieve the social good—to relieve people’s anxiety over health and reduce health disparities. We aim to evolve into an hhceco (hhc philosophy + ecosystem) company, which empowers The People to realize their fullest life from the time that they are in good health up to the final moments of their lives.
