Our Vision

SMKCreativity Solutions

Challenge

We in the SMK Group aim to become an organization and corporate group that possesses the desire for “Challenge, Creativity, & Solutions,” linking these three to create high levels of

executive ability to solve issues for society and our customers.

Aspiring to become a cultural corporation which nurtures our human resource

SMK aspires to become a corporate group that targets Challenge, Creativity and Solutions, having our employees grow on a long-term basis by

emphasizing a structural system and corporate culture that can nurture human resources with the ability to execute these targets.

Aspiring to become a company in high demand by societySMK aspires to become a corporate group that can propose innovative and original

solutions to the challenges of our times, especially in the business realm of “Connectivity”.

Challenge"Challenges" begin with parts and 　expand from thereWe require even more ability to tackle challenges in order to solve issues faced by society and our customers.This refers to looking beyond the horizons for parts, not getting caught up in the framework o f par ts , and work ing on necessary developments before anyone else while imagining the systems that will be required by society and the products required for these systems. Or, in other words, the “challenges” that expand out, starting from parts.The spirit of challenge for continual reform is also important in terms of production, human resources, and organizations.SMK will continue to tackle the challenges of solving the very real issues facing society and customers and of solving their potential issues as well.

SolutionsCreativityThe power to realize ideasIdeas to solve issues and carve out a bright future could be achieved in the form of connectivity technology.They could also be achieved in the form of new parts which never existed previously.The power to achieve ideas is the power to provide solutions.This requires a range of different powers.The production engineering to create cutting-edge parts; the ability to provide customers with solutions; the research and development ability to achieve new performance and functions; the design ability to link people with people, people with things, and things with things; absolute quality....At SMK, people with high technical skills in each of their fields are linked beyond their boundaries, and we offer solutions that contribute to the creation of a rich, evolving future for society and customers.

The power to come up with creative ideasTo make what was impossible possible, to provide the world with objects and systems that never existed before, we need the ability to come up with unique, creative ideas.With today’ s extensive networking between objects and information, expectations are high for dramatic enrichment of our lifestyles, society, and even the natural environment. So, now more than ever is the time for SMK to exercise the creativity it has developed over the years in “linking technologies (connectivity technology),” drawing on its overall high levels of technology.We will remain sensitive to needs and technologies, questioning our preconceptions and thinking them through carefully to come up with creative ideas to carve out a bright future.

We are SMK

It's when problems occur that my abilities are really tested.Right now, I’ m working on quality control for connectors for vehicle cameras.My main job is managing things to prevent problems before they happen during production, m o n i t o r i n g p r o d u c t i o n processes and liaising with other depar tments to nip problems in the bud.By organically working as a team from the development stage to design, production engineering, production, and quality control, we can embed product quality before starting mass production.Quality control is vital to allow our customers to always be satisfied by our products, so I’m proud to be doing this job.Mr. T.A., Quality Control Department

Within the linked SMK departments, each member is enthusiastically involved.

“Sales” is a creative job.Selling SMK products to set makers and creating new products based on customer needs are my main jobs, but I also provide support for overseas projects.Lately, I’ ve been doing a lot of proposals that go the extra mile, after understanding what the customer’s product needs.L i a i s i n g w i t h o t h e r departments in the company is very important for this, and whenever I do so, I take care not to just rely on emails but use the phone or talk face-to-face, letting the customer know that I personally really do understand their issues.I am invo l ved f r om the specifications stage, and the feeling of achievement I get when a product is delivered and the maker sells it as part of his product is something special.For me, “sales” is a creative job.Mr. W.Y., Sales Department

Production Engineering’s work is the linchpin of manufacturingOne of my jobs in Production Engineering involves trying to find that “optimal production method” that will satisfy quality and cost for newly developed products.Studying proposals from the design stage with a view to ease of assembly and appropriate inspections is one job where I get to ramp up both the difficulty of creation and my creativity to full speed, really giving me a sense of satisfaction.I learn a lot from my mistakes, and when one of the products I ’ m responsib le for gets shipped, I feel like a parent sending out a child into the world. When the results go as I hoped, I get this feeling like I want to do better next time, which helps me think more deeply about manufacturing.I f e e l t ha t t he wor k o f Production Engineering in creating a production process really is the linchpin in creating things.Ms. Y. E., Production Engineering Department

Enjoying the challenges of workThe Marketing Department plans and executes effective sales promotion measures based on business plans, sales strategies, and product plans that respond agilely to changes in the market environment and our clients’ needs.My job in this is to plan sales promotions, including creating catalogs, brand reinforcement, and support for exhibits.The latest topic that’ s come my way is managing our 90th Anniversary logo, formatting the overall design of catalogs, unifying the image of our different products, and revamping the SMK Note (diary).The job of Marketing involves a lot of challenges, but I get great pleasure from seeing them be given form.Ms. K.Y., Marketing Department

The Human Resources Department is a place of learning for me, because I put my own abilities under the microscope.My job covers employment in general, as well as supporting non-Japanese nationals when they join the company and visa processes for staff going overseas.What I value in recruiting new people understanding the background to each department’ s recruitment and sketching out the image of the ideal person in my own way.By putting out information from the job-seeker’ s perspective, I really get a sense of satisfaction when we get people to take an interest in SMK or someone who joins us says how glad they are to be on board.To me, the work of HR is both an important job that affects the lives of many, and at the same time, a “learning place” where I get the chance to examine who I am.Ms. H.M., Human Resources Department

Achieving a sustainable society, or sustainability, requires the promotion of CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) by companies that have a major effect on society.SMK promotes CSR from a range of angles in order to meet our social responsibilities as a company in our business activities both in Japan and overseas.In 1997, we established the SMK Group Charter for Corporate Behavior as an announcement of our stance on approaches to CSR as a company.In addition, we have adopted the concept of “PSR” (Personal Social Responsibility), which is unique to SMK, and established the SMK Group Charter for Employee Behavior in 2006.We require each employee to consider CSR and act responsibly.We have also set up the SMK Ethics Help Line, with contact portals both in the company and outside, in line with our establishment of this Charter.We also carry out regular questionnaires on the extent of compliance within SMK targeted at our suppliers and customer satisfaction surveys targeted at our customers, reflecting the valuable we obtain in our CSR activities.Moreover, when it comes to responses to risk management, an area we have been dealing with for some time now, we used the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake to revise and strengthen our BCM (Business Continuity Management) over the entire Group, minimizing the effects of a major disaster or other incident on our business activities, thus working to fulfill our responsibilities towards stakeholders.

Activities of the Showa Ikeda Memorial Public Interest FoundationThe Showa Ikeda Memorial Foundation was established in 1976 with the authorization of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the founding of SMK Corporation (formerly known as Showa Musen Kogyo Co., Ltd. founded 1925) through the personal investment of the company founder, the late Mr. Heishiro Ikeda, and his wife, the late Mrs. Shizuko Ikeda, to promote social welfare activities, with additional funding from SMK.Following the amendment of the Charitable Corporations Act, the Foundation received a new lease of life when on March 25, 2013, it was certified by the Governor of Tokyo as an incorporated charitable organization. From April 1, it thus became officially known as the Showa

Ikeda Memorial Foundation (Incorporated Charitable Organization).Since its founding, the Foundation quietly carries out a number of different activities, including scholarships as well as welfare for the mentally and physically disabled, children, and the aged.Of note is the Foundation’s scholarship for outstanding schoolchildren and students, aimed at fostering the next generation.In 2006, thirty years after it was founded, the foundation expanded its support to offer special scholarships for graduate students in the sciences.From 1991 to the present day, the foundation has also provided scholarships to foreign students studying at the Tokyo Japanese Language Education Center.Since 1981 the Foundation has continued to support outstanding schoolchildren and students with the annual Showa Ikeda Prize (under the auspices of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology).The Foundation also continues to contribute broadly to social causes, such as with its donations to welfarefacilities of wheelchairs and vehicles and equipment, its funding for activities and events, and projects aimed at encouraging the pursuit of traditional arts and crafts.

As a responsible corporation, we of SMK Group have been involved in a range of efforts including social welfare activities and regional contributions for many years.

＊Olympic Model 680 Receiver (1937)The power transformers we produced in 1929, when Showa Musen Kogyo Co., Ltd. was founded, were trademarked as “Olympic.”“Link the world wirelessly. Foster a company rich in the youth and vitality of the Olympic Games, and in the future, spread our sales routes around the world.” These were the ideas behind this trademark.In 1932 we opened our Head Office Factory, and started producing radio r e c e i v i ng equ i pmen t f o r g ene ra l consumers.Then in 1937 SMK’s “Olympic 680” model took a prize for excellence at the First Radio Competitive Exhibition, held by the Japan Radio Association, beating out 107 other exhibited devices for the prize.This amazing result was just five years after we started out making receivers.The photo shows this same model, currently housed at SMK.
