Core Competences

The Eizo Nanao Group has built up a range of key technologies to advance the company’s core competences in the development of imaging equipment such as computer monitors. Our management focus, based on these core competences, involves harnessing the synergies between our various business units and developing new products to strengthen our product base. Products such as our FlexScan® high-quality LCD monitors deliver a high degree of added value. To meet the exacting requirements of the medical market, meanwhile, we have developed RadiForce® medical display monitors; and for the demanding graphics market, ColorEdge® calibratable LCD monitors. These examples show how we are able to clearly differentiate EIZO from its competitors.

We have also created visual solutions that integrate hardware and software: two examples are amusement monitors and home video game software. In the case of our FORIS LCD TVs, we seek to further develop the products’ high-quality imaging and sound, along with our unique and sophisticated designs that distinguish them from the competition. In Japan, we have established a new business model that incorporates a system of direct marketing: EIZO Direct, a web-based store, and EIZO Galleria, a direct-order shop.

Looking to the future, we will continue to develop our already advanced enterprises and keep driving them onwards. We aim to consolidate a clear brand identity encompassing technology, product value, and service. Despite an increasingly competitive business environment, we vow to create the added value that will deliver true satisfaction to our customers. 2 ÉiÉiÉIâÔé–àƒì‡.qxdÇÃÉRÉsÅ[ 08.4.15 2:24 PM Page 6
