About OPEN
Philosophy: Corporate Philosophy
A company’s “philosophy”—which serves as its guiding principle—is composed of five terms with distinct roles: mission, vision, values, spirit, and slogan.
What does the company value, and what value does it provide to society?
As Open Group, who are the customers we should truly be providing value to, and what challenges does the world face?
Our philosophy is shaped by clarifying these points.
Mission: The Mission We Must Fulfill Every Day
: Co-creating Human Evolution
While Open Group is engaged in AI automation and new business development as part of its operations, at its core lies a desire to help people realize their full potential.
Our corporate mission is to help society evolve toward a future where people can fully realize their potential through creative work that only humans can do.
We have chosen the term “human evolution” to convey both a neutral perspective—that, from the Earth’s standpoint, humanity is simply one species among many plants and animals—and the fact that the human species has undergone a unique evolutionary path that no other species has experienced.
Despite the fact that the labor shortage is being highlighted as such a significant social issue, many companies and local governments have yet to make progress in improving operations, increasing efficiency, and advancing digital transformation.
To tackle this challenge, an open group alone simply cannot move fast enough, and it will take time to create a significant social impact.
We will solve this challenge through co-creation with local governments and companies that share our commitment to seriously addressing it.

Vision: The Future We Want to Realize
A Society Where People’s Ability to Enjoy Life
Thrives
Everyone should have the right to enjoy their own life to the fullest.
People are able to perform at their best precisely when they are focused on things that interest them or that they truly want to do.
To make the most of our limited and precious human resources, the Open Group aims to create a society where everyone gives their all to achieve their goals and where life is vibrant and full of energy.

Value: The Value We Promise
As professionals in co-creation and innovation, we are driving the evolution of
To achieve our mission and vision, there is only so much Open Group can do on its own.
To address the challenge of a labor shortage, we will leverage the expertise we have gained as professionals through the development of various new businesses and projects to date. By transcending conventional business channels, methods, and organizational frameworks, we will create new value through all forms of co-creation and deliver it to our customers and society.
Unlocking people’s potential and growing together.
Through the value we provide in areas such as AI automation—by taking on tasks that do not require human involvement—we enable valuable human resources to shift their focus to areas where they can fully realize their inherent potential.
Furthermore, rather than placing an excessive burden or making sacrifices on any single party, we will prioritize building relationships where clients, society, Open Group, and our partners can grow together as co-creation partners.
An area where people can realize their potential
Tasks that do not require human involvement
Share a vision and work toward making it a reality.
Not only do we provide value and results to our clients through our business, but as co-creation partners tackling the same social challenges, we share our mutual visions to inspire and motivate one another, fostering a relationship of trust in which we can learn from and challenge each other.

Spirit: The Spirit We Should Cherish
Be the Best
We will see it through with pride and a sense of responsibility.
Being entrusted with a task is proof that someone trusts you, and as a professional, you must live up to that trust.
It is an absolute prerequisite to maintain a broad perspective, identify the other party’s true challenges, propose fundamental solutions, and see them through to the end.
We never neglect our daily efforts to gather information and hone our skills in order to deliver value.
Expectations = Minimum Standards
Take the initiative
Take the initiative and create value.
Simply following instructions passively is not enough to do the job properly.
We place great importance on the mindset of consistently exceeding our clients’ expectations by proactively identifying and delivering added value.
Enjoying It for Real
Enjoy giving it your all.
People who genuinely enjoy their work and constantly think about—and put into practice—how to make any task interesting and fun attract others and draw more opportunities their way.
Good work starts with your attitude toward your job.
Creating People
Creating opportunities and developing people.
The scope of work that a single person can handle—and the impact they can have—is limited.
Open Group, which tackles major social issues, provides new growth opportunities to all those involved—both inside and outside the company—thereby helping each other grow and expanding the community of partners working together to solve these challenges.

Intuition and Science
Evolving through intuition and science.
People are capable of dealing with both intuition and science.
Even when faced with difficult challenges, by drawing on theories and frameworks while also valuing intuition and sensitivity, it is possible to discover a third, new solution.
In addition, you can systematize solutions that were arrived at intuitively to ensure they can be replicated.
You will develop a way of thinking that bridges intuition and science.

Slogan: The Brand’s Motto
Every Change, an Evolution
To varying degrees, people and organizations often find themselves unable to change even when they want to, or they feel anxious or resistant to change.
That’s exactly why we need a partner who will walk alongside us through those changes.
I want to be someone who can sometimes lead the way a few steps ahead, sometimes work side by side and sweat it out with you, and sometimes give you a little push from behind.
Open Group is committed to increasing the number of individuals and organizations that are unafraid of change and can transform it into their own positive evolution.

Message: A Message from the President
Co-creating human evolution:
.
OPEN, Inc.’s mission is to co-create human evolution.
This mission is not merely an abstract philosophy; it lies at the very foundation of our daily business activities.
As a company that advocates for and promotes AI Transformation®, we aim to leverage automation technology to shift tasks that do not require human involvement to the realm where people can fully realize their inherent potential.
We are confronting structural challenges in Japanese society, such as labor shortages, an aging population, and the accelerating pace of technological evolution.
These challenges cannot be solved by the efforts of a single company alone.
That is why we have established two business models—the DX Partner model and the BPaaS model—to create a framework that enables co-creation in the optimal form tailored to each client’s situation.
Services such as BizRobo!, AUTORO, and the RoboRobo series serve as the tools for this co-creation.
Through these services, we support our clients in areas such as corporate DX, business automation, compliance, marketing, and human resources and labor management, while continuing to evolve ourselves as “professionals in co-creation and innovation.”
Alongside our investment in technology, we place great importance on investing in people.
Technology does not generate value on its own; it only becomes valuable through the people who implement and utilize it.
Being first-class, taking the initiative, developing people, enjoying giving it our all, and moving fluidly between intuition and science.
People who embody these guiding principles will grow alongside our customers and evolve together with society.
That is the essence of OPEN, Inc.
Every Change, an Evolution.
Upholding this slogan, we will co-create the future together with everyone we work with.
