What has Sharp been able to reach after 11 decades?

The corporation emphasizes ESG to raise its social value and revitalize its brand for sustainable growth. Sharp said it has a vision of providing better health and innovative solutions for the people while providing an open environment to grow.

On September 15, 1912, Sharp Corporation was established by Founder Tokuji Hayakawa as a metalworking shop in Tokyo. After that, he created the "Ever Ready Sharp Pencil", a twist-type mechanical pencil that was the origin of the corporate brand. 

Later on, the company came up with a business vision of "Changing the World with 8K+5G and AIoT". Allegedly, it played an essential role in 8K technology.
