Today is Word Cities Day.   World Cities Day is observed annually on October 31st. It was established by the United Nations to promote the international community’s interest in global urbanization and contribute to sustainable urban development around the world. According to WHO, By 2050, it is estimated that nearly 7 out of 10 people worldwide will live in cities or other urban environments.   This picture is taken in Osaka city where Sharp’s headquarters is located. By the way, do you know why Sharp’s head quarters is in Osaka city, Japan? Actually the location of Sharp’s founding was Tokyo. In 1912, Sharp’s founder, Tokuji Hayakawa, founded the company in Tokyo city. But the factory was burned down due to a big earthquake. He moved to Osaka city, then started the business again. That’s the reason why Sharp’s headqueaters are now located in Osaka city. #sharp_global #sharp #worldcitiesday

Story of Founder Tokuji Hayakawa 1953 Tokuji’s Conviction: There Will Soon Be “One Television Set Per Household” In the period shortly after television broadcasting began in Japan, TVs were still expensive, and looking toward commercial uses such as hotels and coffee shops, the industry had settled on 17-inch sets as their mainstream models. In contrast, Tokuji decided to focus on the smaller 14-inch screen size, and boldly took the lead in the industry by building a mass production system. He had the confidence that, as TV became increasingly popular, the era of “one set per household” would eventually arrive. His idea was that a 14-inch model would better fit the size of the rooms in which Japanese people lived, and there was also a price advantage. In addition, he worked to bring down costs by gradually increasing production volumes at his mass-production plant, and took the lead in the industry by achieving a series of price reductions—from “10,000 yen per inch” and then “TVs for less than 100,000 yen.” Demand skyrocketed, and as he thought they would, TVs made their way into ordinary households and dramatically changed people’s lives. https://lnkd.in/gn2UQZiu 早川徳次物語 1953年 テレビはやがて「一家に一台」の時代へ。徳次の確信 日本でテレビ放送が始まってしばらくの時期は、テレビはまだ高価であり、業界ではホテルや喫茶店などの営業用に向く、17型に主力を置いていました。 これに対して、徳次は、小型の14型に重点を置き、業界に先駆け思い切った量産体制を敷きました。 それは、やがてテレビが一般に普及して「一家に一台の時代」が来ると確信していたからです。 14型なら、日本人の生活する部屋の大きさに合う上、価格の点からも利点があると考えたのです。 さらに、量産工場で順次生産台数を増やすことでコストダウンをはかり、「1インチ1万円」、さらには「10万円を切るテレビ」と、低価格化を次々に実現し、業界をリードしていきました。 需要は飛躍的に拡大、その思惑通りテレビは一般家庭にまで普及し、人々の生活を大きく変えるようになりました。 https://lnkd.in/g2FjVRMu  #sharp_global #sharp #tokujihayakawa #tokuji_way

Story of Founder Tokuji Hayakawa 1952 A Spirit of Service that Impressed the Social Entrepreneurs of the World The success of the Tokusen Metal plant operated by visually impaired people themselves became widely known around the world, and a number of famous people came to visit the factory: these included the renowned social entrepreneur Toyohiko Kagawa and wealthy philanthropist John D.  Rockefeller III. Mr. Rockefeller was impressed by the way employees did their jobs with single-minded focus, and moreover, with pride.  After he returned to the United States, he sent a letter reiterating those feelings.  Tokuji’s support for persons with disabilities to become independent had also impressed global philanthropists.   In addition, Tokuji continued to hold exchanges with a wide range of social entrepreneurs, and demonstrated this spirit of service such as by supporting facilities to assist older visually handicapped individuals. https://lnkd.in/gn2UQZiu 早川徳次物語 1952年 世界の社会事業家を唸らせた奉仕の精神 視覚障がい者自らが経営する特選金属工場の成功は世間に広く知れ渡り、著名な社会事業家の賀川豊彦氏が、やはり世界的富豪であり慈善活動家としても有名なロックフェラー氏を伴って、直接工場の視察に訪れたこともありました。 そして、そこでひたむきに、しかも誇りをもって仕事に取り組む社員たちの姿に感銘を受けたロックフェラー氏は帰国後、改めてその気持ちを伝える手紙を送ってきました。 徳次の取り組んだ障がい者自立への支援が、世界的な慈善家をも感動させたのでした。 このほかにも、幅広い社会事業家と交流を持ち、盲老人の施設を支援するなど、奉仕の精神を発揮し続けたのです。 https://lnkd.in/g2FjVRMu  #sharp_global #sharp #tokujihayakawa #tokuji_way
