Panasonic Europe

At Panasonic, we believe that true success comes not just from innovation, but from the dedication and sincerity we put into every product. 💼💪 Our founder, Konosuke Matsushita, once reflected on the joy he felt when his hard work was recognised - not for profit, but for the pure fulfilment of creating something valuable for others: “This was not out of a desire to sell it at a high price and make a profit, but out of pure gratitude that they recognized the hard work that had gone into making it over several months.” It is a reminder that when we put our hearts ❤️ into our work, we don't just build products, we build trust. By embracing this passion and purpose, we strive to deliver solutions that truly make a difference. #PanasonicEurope #BusinessPhilosophy #Founder #History #Products #Success #Dedication

Meet PIMTO, Panasonic Holdings Corporation's latest “recruit”, who doesn't need a break, moves around with ease, and is here to serve up snacks and smiles at Shinjuku Gyoen! 🍵🌸 With a record 2.5 million visitors last year, Shinjuku Gyoen's first-ever robot vendor is here to make the visitor experience more seamless (and fun!). Whether you are there for a peaceful stroll or one of the flower exhibitions, PIMTO will be your friendly snack robot, serving up cold drinks and warm vibes throughout the park. 🤖 And because our robot is part of an accessible employment initiative, PIMTO is not just selling treats - it is helping us promote universal design and inclusivity, aiming to create an environment where people with disabilities or mental health issues can more comfortably visit and stay at Shinjuku Gyoen, while also making it easier for them to participate in service operations.💡 As part of these efforts, Panasonic will collaborate with welfare facilities to manage the movement of sales outlets through the remote control of robots and handle the packaging of products to be sold.

To celebrate Black History Month (BHM), the Panasonic Europe EMBRACE group invited Jasmine Violet to speak about her journey as a black artist.  This year's theme for BHM is reclaiming narratives, so it was wonderful to hear Jasmine's journey in her own words. 🗣️    As an artist, Jasmine has been influenced by the psyche, identity, and subconscious thought. Jasmine's artwork often focuses on themes of mental health, as well as exploring her identity as a black woman within Welsh and British culture. 🎨💭    She also shared how she believes art has the power to inspire, challenge and bring about social change, especially when it reflects the voices of marginalised communities. Although black artists are under-represented in galleries, there are signs of hope, such as Lubaina Himid winning the Turner Prize and inspiring a new generation of black creatives, whose work has been exhibited across Wales and the UK.    Thanks to everyone who joined us for this powerful conversation. We look forward to continuing these dialogues that celebrate diversity and inspire new ideas across Panasonic. 👥❤️  #PanasonicEurope #Embrace #Webinar #Journey #Identity #BlackHistoryMonth

What if technology could help us build a more caring world? 🤔🌐 At Panasonic, we are working towards 2040 where every choice we make - powered by innovative technology - naturally supports each other and the planet. 🌍 In our Technology Future Vision Tomoko Katayama, Technology Planning Office & Strategy Planning Department at Panasonic, showed how this vision aims to foster a "co-caring society" where sustainable solutions and thoughtful choices go hand in hand. “After much consideration, we concluded that in the future society we envision, a society where individual choice naturally leads to caring for each other and the planet. Moreover, we identified three factors that play key roles in developing such a society: energy and resources, a sense of fulfilment, and care and consideration.” Katayama explained. 💡 Together, let's create a future where technology brings us closer together, cares for our environment, and inspires every decision.

In any workplace, obstacles are inevitable. But how we respond to them defines our journey. It's this drive and willingness to embrace imperfection and strive for excellence that builds trust and admiration among colleagues.🤝   Our Founder Konosuke Matsushita believed that “Even if you join a company that you think is good, it doesn't mean that everything about it is perfect. Sometimes there will be flaws. However, the way you deal with it will be completely different depending on whether you decide from the beginning that "this company is no good" or whether you approach it with enthusiasm, thinking "I don't think this point is good, but I'm going to take it as my problem and try to improve it." How do you choose to see challenges? #PanasonicEurope #Challenge #Success #Journey #Workplace 

Tackling climate change is about more than cutting emissions - it's about protecting the ecosystems that sustain us all. 🌍 At Panasonic, we are committed to achieving carbon neutrality through our Panasonic GREEN IMPACT (PGI) initiative because we believe a thriving business depends on a thriving planet. In a recent discussion, Dr. Naoki Adachi and Tatsuo Ogawa, CTO of Panasonic Holdings, highlighted the urgent need for businesses to embrace biodiversity as essential to human and economic survival and explored why the link between business and biodiversity is more important than ever. Dr. Adachi emphasized that biodiversity is the foundation of human life and economic activity - and that when we harm nature, we undermine the very systems that sustain us. Tatsuo Ogawa shared Panasonic's vision to lead the way in creating a nature-positive economy - one where businesses don't just reduce their impact, but actively restore and regenerate ecosystems. 🔄🌱 It's about doing more than less; it's about giving back to nature what we have taken. 🌿💚 Read the full article here 👉 https://lnkd.in/eS56386S  #PanasonicEurope #Nature #Giving Back #DayofClimateAction #Sustainability #Business
