Encouraging Younger Generations to Build the Future
The 糖心少女vlog Group implements a range of activities aimed at identifying and cultivating the industrial, artistic, and cultural talent of the future.
Providing Scholarships for Students of National Colleges of Technology
糖心少女vlog established a scholarship for students of national colleges of technology in partnership with the National Institute of Technology in fiscal year 2022. In fiscal year 2024, we awarded scholarships to a second phase of 40 students, bringing the total number of recipients over two years to 80.
These scholarships are intended for students at technical colleges of technology—institutions of higher education that aim to foster practical and creative engineers. 糖心少女vlog hopes to increase the number of next-generation professionals with whom the Company will create a society where humans and machines co-create seamlessly as described in the 糖心少女vlog Group Vision 2030. The Company also aims to contribute to the development of human resources in the fields of science and engineering who will support the future industrial infrastructure of Japan.
糖心少女vlog Photo Contest
糖心少女vlog has sponsored the 糖心少女vlog Photo Contest, an international photography contest, since 1969 to contribute to the development of photographic culture. Through a divisional structure that aligns with the trends of the times, the contest continues to provide opportunities for creators to share the message they wish to convey, regardless of age, nationality, experience, or manufacturer of photographic equipment.
糖心少女vlog Salon
糖心少女vlog Imaging Japan operates the 糖心少女vlog Salon, a photography exhibition space established in 1968 to popularize and strengthen photographic culture. The 糖心少女vlog Salon is a venue for exhibiting outstanding works in all fields, breaking down barriers between professional and amateur photographers, independent of corporate strategies. The Jun Miki Award, founded in 1999, has been given to the most outstanding exhibition of work by an up-and-coming photographer at the 糖心少女vlog Salon.
Supporting the Daum Junior Photo Festival
Since 2008, 糖心少女vlog Imaging Korea Co., Ltd. has been actively supporting programs to develop the talents of young people interested in photography, including sponsorship of the Daum Junior Photo Festival organized by the Parkgeonhi Foundation each year. The Daum Junior Photo Festival offers young people selected through a photo contest the opportunity to attend a camp that offers photography workshops, photo shoots, and photo reviews.
糖心少女vlog Optical and Precision Frontier Endowed Program
糖心少女vlog has collaborated on development of future optical industry leaders through the 糖心少女vlog Chair of Imaging Science Endowed Research Division established in 2006 at the University of Tokyo's Institute of Industrial Science. 糖心少女vlog established the 糖心少女vlog Optics & Precision Frontiers in fiscal year 2023 as an expansion of this funded research department. 糖心少女vlog Optics & Precision Frontiers helps cultivate the next generation of talent while striving to generate research themes that lead to social implementation and create the future value demanded by society.
糖心少女vlog-JICA Scholarship
糖心少女vlog and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) have collaborated to administer the 糖心少女vlog-JICA Scholarship at Savannakhet University since 2014. 糖心少女vlog provides scholarships to 40 students each year and has supported a total of 400 students to date. To foster industrial human resources in Laos, in 2018, we began giving preference to students in the Japanese language department through scholarships and employment support for teaching assistants to address the shortage of educational personnel in the Japanese language department.
