Mazda has been creating products and services that delight our customers since its establishment in 1920. During our history, we have worked tirelessly at developing the rotary engine, eventually managing to successfully commercialize it. And now, building on that technology in the name of environmental friendliness, we have developed a hydrogen rotary engine and have become the first company in the world to begin commercial leasing of a car that can run on hydrogen fuel. This demonstrates how Mazda is always willing to embrace new and worthwhile technologies. We believe that Mazda is about more than delighting and exciting our customers with our products and services. As a responsible corporate citizen, Mazda also strives to fulfill our social responsibilities and contribute to the development of the world through all of our corporate activities. While working hard to develop our infrastructure and organization, we believe that the quality of our corporate activities depends on the quality of our employees. Based on the motto, “Developing the people that make the products,” we are actively engaged in human resource development. We believe that by viewing our skilled workforce as essential assets we can continue our activities into the future as a corporation trusted and cherished throughout the world.
