Materialities
DNP identifies materiality to realize the “better future” it envisions.
DNP's Vision for a Better Future
Based on the Corporate Philosophy, the DNP Group aims to realize “a sustainable, better society and well-being lives" as a sustainable management concept and is taking the initiative in conducting business activities to create a “better future.”
To realize the four interrelated societies that it aims for as a “better future,” in March 2024 DNP identified materiality as important for it to continuously grow together with society by specifying what DNP should do and what value it will create with an eye toward 2030-35.
The DNP Group continuously takes a long-term view and will conduct business activities to create a “better future” based on the Corporate Philosophy. DNP has clarified the four societies that only DNP can realize and the key issues (materiality) for priority resolution and will continuously take on the challenge of creating new value that connects people and society.
Process for Identifying Materiality
We comprehensively grasp social issues and mega-trends related to the environment, society, and economy, and identify and evaluate medium- to long-term risks (variables) in DNP's business activities, as well as identify and prioritize social issues that are highly important for DNP and society stakeholders.
