Corporate Vision
Vision 2035
The Corporate Vision, called Vision2035, explains TDK’s founding objectives and spirit, its past four major innovations, contributions utilizing its global resources, and efforts to implement the Corporate Motto. It indicates TDK’s vision―what TDK’s
goals are and what it is aiming for―from past, present, and future perspectives and the direction in which the company should advance toward its 100th anniversary in 2035.
TDK was founded in 1935 from the vision and belief of the founder, who
wanted to "commercialize ferrite, a made-in-Japan magnetic material, and contribute to the development of society."
TDK has made four major innovations of which it can be justly proud (ferrite material, magnetic tape, multilayer components,
and magnetic heads) and has continued to create products that support social development.
Looking to the future, as a company consistently forging a path of innovation, TDK intends to continue contributing to the creation of customer value
through the supply of high-quality products and services and by utilizing its diverse global management resources.
TDK will continue to steadily "Contribute to culture and industry through creativity" by earnestly addressing the theme of "revitalizing and protecting the global environment and creating a pleasant and safe society."
