OUR CORPORATE SYMBOL

We are proud of our corporate symbol which adopts the initial ‘ O’ from the corporate name as its motif and the colour blue which symbolises openness, freedom, intelligence and the future.

• The Large O represents the sky – open and free.
• The Small O represents focused energy.

Together, they frame our commitment to human happiness through good health.

OUR GLOBAL PHILOSOPHY

To turn our corporate philosophy of ‘Otsuka–people creating new products for better health worldwide’ into reality requires passion, leadership, dedication, diversity and perseverance.

To make this happen, our employees are encouraged to break the boundaries of conventional wisdom, to cross into the unknown and to think big… and then even bigger!
