EWAY Future & Beyond
In “EWAY Future & Beyond”, the first five years starting in FY2021 is “EWAY Future”, while FY2026 onward is “EWAY Beyond”. The perspective will be shifted from that of patients to The People or each consumer. With “empowering The People to realize their fullest life” as the vision, we will promote creating solutions based on scientific evidence in the areas of our expertise: neurology and oncology. Additionally, we will further enhance the hhc process that is based on the hhc philosophy that we have long been implementing. In the hhc process, we obtain an understanding of the anxieties of our customers, and we resolve those anxieties by formulating strategies for their removal. We will keep ourselves close to the lives of The People by enhancing this process. As a result of such efforts, we will aim to evolve the hhc process to “hhceco”, which is a combination of the hhc philosophy and an ecosystem that will support and enable The People to realize their fullest life from the time that they are in good health up to the final moments of their lives.
