Forbes Asia Featured Interview with President Makaya
FUJIFILM Business Innovation: Reborn to Create Global Value
“Customers can expect true technological innovation from the combined strengths of the Fujifilm Group.”
— HISANORI MAKAYA, President & CEO
Hisanori Makaya, the new President and CEO of FUJIFILM Business Innovation, was featured in an interview with Forbes Asia (published July 2021). Makaya outlined his global growth strategies under the Fujifilm brand as well as his management philosophy.
Makaya believes the company’s new name truly represents its mission. He joined Fuji Photo Film (now FUJIFILM Holdings) in the early 1980s, when films were predicted to eventually disappear. The story of Fujifilm became a case study for many, and Makaya was a witness to the amazing transformation which Fujifilm has undergone. “We never stop,” said Makaya.

Our volunteers supported “Make-A-Wish” Flag Day
Our FUJIFILM Business Innovation Hong Kong volunteer team supported the Make-A-Wish Hong Kong Flag Day 2021 on 10 July 2021. The team comprising of staff members and their friends and family contributed more than 120 volunteer hours. The raised funds will be used to create life-changing wishes for children aged between 3 and 17 with critical illnesses, encourage them to combat their illnesses bravely, and fill their life with love, power and happiness.
The time and love devoted by our volunteers not only helped raise funds but also to arouse public awareness of the importance of caring for those children beyond medical support, and bringing a positive impact to them and their families. We believe that every single effort from each volunteer helps create a collective impact to the community for the greater good of the beneficiaries.
