Diversity Photo Contest Where Children with Disabilities and High School Students Create Together

Mikiki Kogyo Co., Ltd. (President: Kazuhiro Nagoya) announces that it will become a Gold Partner sponsor for the '3rd Colorful Photolympic,' starting in 2026. The event is organized by Tokyo Polytechnic University (President: Hiroaki Yoshino) and the nonprofit corporation Colorful Photolympic (Representative Director: Miki Uki).

Colorful Photolympic※ is a photography contest in which high school students photograph child models with disabilities. Through the medium of photography, it aims to showcase the individuality, charm, and potential of children with disabilities to society. It provides a platform where 'viewers,' 'photographers,' and 'subjects' can grow together, fostering cross-generational and cross-background interactions through the act of photography. Our company deeply resonates with this mission and philosophy, which led to our decision to sponsor the event.

The Mikiki Kogyo Group has identified 'creating new social value' and 'pursuing the happiness of employees' as materiality (key issues) in its Medium-Term Management Plan 2027. We are actively promoting workplace diversity and social contribution initiatives. We believe that accumulating such experiences will contribute to building an inclusive society where everyone can thrive.

Going forward, our company will continue to grow together with society through such initiatives.
