Nihon M&A Center positions its 35th anniversary as an opportunity for a "Second Founding" and will continue to work on strengthening its business foundation and improving the value it provides.

Establishing "Vision" and "Core Values"

Amid changes in the business environment and societal expectations, we recognized the need to more clearly articulate our values and judgment criteria. Therefore, we have established our "Vision," which represents our aspirations, and our "Core Values," which serve as guiding principles for our employees' actions and decisions. These are a distillation of the concepts Nihon M&A Center has cherished, positioned as a common guideline for the future. Moving forward, we will ensure these are deeply ingrained within the company and reflected in daily decision-making and actions, aiming for sustainable growth and enhanced corporate value.

35th Anniversary Full-Page Newspaper Advertisements, Special Movie "That Decision, Current Growth"

Full-page advertisements were placed in morning editions of newspapers in regions where Nihon M&A Center has offices, and a special movie was produced.
