Throughout the history of Alps Electric since its founding
period, we have diligently pursued our own unique style
of monozukuri (encompassing all aspects of product
creation) based on a stance of devotion to electronic
components.
In that time, spanning almost 70 years, we have built
up a stock of original technologies that represent our
foundations for monozukuri, its essence summed up in
the phrase, “perfecting the art of electronics,” which is
our business domain.
The “art of electronics” refers to products manifesting
an excellent balance between the traits right, unique and
green—besides a refined appearance, products must
perform the desired function with outstanding quality and
with minimal impact on the environment. We are single-
mindedly committed to pursuing these characteristics.
Today, our lifestyles and industry are played out
in a data-driven society where big data gathered
through sophisticated networks is analyzed by artificial
intelligence (AI) and reflected in the real world. A brand
new environment—the smart society—is beginning to
take shape. Caught in the intense swell generated by
such technological innovation, Alps Electric is advancing
activities under its 8th Mid-Term Business Plan covering
the three years from fiscal 2016. As well as broadening
the range of markets we serve—from conventional
home appliances to smartphones and other mobile
devices, automobiles and now the EHII sectors (energy,
healthcare, industry and IoT)—we are constantly working
to further enrich and fuse core technologies for these
markets, pursuing a style of monozukuri for the next
generation based on fresh ideas.
Alps Electric will keep striving to create new value that
brings comfort to and enriches the lives of people all
over the world while caring for the environment.
Single-mindedly perfecting the art of electronicsto create new value that satisfies stakeholdersand is friendly to the Earth

Alps Electric has been implementing its 8th Mid-Term Business Plan since 2016 with a goal to become a company that
can achieve sustained growth, which is one that keeps generating new pillars of profit by carving out businesses in
future growth markets with new products created from core technologies.
Aiming to become a company that can achieve sustained growth, we are advancing devel-opment of unique products
with high added value, positioning the automotive, mobile and EHII (energy, healthcare, industry and IoT*) sectors—the
latter possessing future growth poten-tial—as our three priority markets.
Demand for vehicles that deliver safety, peace of mind, comfort and
environmental perfor-mance is mounting and automakers are not the only ones
engaged in technological devel-opment to enable advanced driver assistance
systems (ADAS) and partial implementation of autonomous driving. Alps Electric
carries out broad development to bolster its lineup of sensors employed in
engines and chassis and wireless communication devices for ADAS, and to pro-
vide electronic shifters and other modules controlled by people inside the vehicle
cabin. We also actively pursue alliances with other companies.
The smartphone market is expected to keep growing due to continued expansion
of sales volume in emerging nations and models offering faster speeds and larger
capacity. Alps Electric endeavors to respond swiftly to customer requirements
and to develop and produce a broad range of products for the market, including
autofocus actuators, switches, sensors, connectors and touch panels. As we also
look to expand the domain to encompass the entire mobile market, we will readily
introduce new technologies, such as HAPTIC™ devices based on force feedback
and high-performance sensors.
In targeting the EHII market, which has broad and varied business formats, Alps
Electric is taking steps to establish a business platform, for example through
independent product de-velopment and partnerships with other companies. In the
growing IoT*, or M2M*, sector, Alps Electric has led the way with the introduction
of a Sensor Network Module. Employed as a development tool, the module
contributes to the creation of new frameworks and services. To the environmental
market, we have deployed home energy storage systems and an original material,
Liqualloy™, and efforts are underway to expand future business.
— Believe in people —
It is people who give birth to business and who nurture technology. For
that reason, we nurture people and employ them well. To us, believing in
people is a universal corporate philosophy and our culture of valuing human
resources and letting them excel flows ceaselessly through us in maxims
such as these: “Businesses easily founder. But…people must walk upright.
Possess strengths,” and, “Don’t be afraid to make mistakes.”
— Three Hards —
The Three Hards are another element of Alps culture. “Work Hard: Sincerity” is our ap-
proaching everything with sincerity and in earnest at all times; “Study Hard: Challenge”
is our insatiable desire to keep trying new things based on what we learn; and “Play
Hard: Solidarity” expresses the energy generated through teamwork and togetherness
of which we can be proud. The Three Hards reside within us, as strength, sustaining
us in our pursuits.
Enrichment and fusion of core technologieswith a focus on three core markets
