												Fujitsu's Approaches to Developing Smartphones
Fujitsu’s Approaches to Developing Smartphones Katsumi Takada Amid a paradigm shift from feature phones to smartphones, Fujitsu acquired the top market share in Japan as a vendor of mobile phones with its quick deployment of 11 smartphones for NTT DOCOMO, INC. and KDDI CORPORATION in 2011. While maintaining this strong domestic market position, Fujitsu is aiming to enter global markets in earnest with Raku-Raku SMART PHONEs in 2012. Fujitsu smartphones are founded on two of the company’s strengths. The first is the company’s technologies—its phones have the best features in the industry because they adopt the latest and fastest platform, they have leading radio technology, and they use Fujitsu’s unique technologies that it has cultivated so far, such as human perception technolo- gies for good visibility of displays, good audibility of phone calls, and comfortable touchscreen controls. The other is the company’s excellence in manufacturing within factories that are lo- cated in Japan. Furthermore, Fujitsu keeps improving its software development ability to use open-source technology which is necessary for smartphone platforms such as Android OS. This paper introduces Fujitsu’s smartphone strategy that utilizes these strengths and also its ap- proach to developing new markets. 1.

The HEMT was the 35th IEEE milestone in Japan. Achievement on the plaque is as follows. ・High Electron Mobility Transistor, HEMT, 1979 “The HEMT, invented in 1979, was the first transistor to incorporate an interface between two semiconductor materials with different energy gaps. HEMT proved superior to previous transistor technologies due to high mobility of channel carriers, resulting in high speed and high frequency performance. HEMTs have been widely used in radio telescopes, satellite broadcasting receivers and cellular base stations, giving rise to a fundamental technology supporting the information and communication society.” A presentation ceremony hosted by IEEE Tokyo Section was held at Hikari-no-ma, Imperial Hotel Tokyo.

News Release Cool Japan Fund Inc. Tokyo, March 9, 2018 Investing in the Content Production and Japanese Content Distribution Business for Television Broadcast in the Republic of the Union of Myanmar Cool Japan Fund is pleased to announce an investment of approximately 16 million USD in a joint venture project for conducting content production by introducing up-to-date broadcast equipment and distributing Japanese content in Myanmar in cooperation with Japan International Broadcasting Inc. (JIB) and the Fund Corporation for the Overseas Development of Japan’s ICT and Postal Services (JICT) through a major media conglomerate in Myanmar called Shwe Than Lwin Media Co., Ltd. (STLM), and its terrestrial broadcasting station Myanmar National Television (MNTV). This enterprise will not only newly offer Japanese content to MNTV and other STLM’s channels, which have broadcasted NHK’s historical dramas such as Sanadamaru and Atsuhime as well as other programs from Japanese commercial TV stations, but also produce collaboration programs by using the Japanese television program formats. Through distributing Japanese content in Myanmar, Cool Japan Fund aims to promote Japanese products and services, and contribute to strengthen the relations between both countries. There is also a potential ripple effect leading the increase of tourists from Myanmar to Japan in the future. In Myanmar, the entry of private terrestrial television broadcasting station was approved in 2005 and with the spread of television sets and the improvement of the broadcasting legislation system, there is a strong expectation of market growth in media industry.
