Bloomberg: “Nikon looks beyond cameras to reinvent itself as tech supplier”


Bloomberg published a new article called “Nikon looks beyond cameras to reinvent itself as tech supplier“:

“Most people think of us as a camera company, but historically when we were founded we supplied parts for other companies,” Chief Executive Officer Toshikazu Umatate said in an interview. Now, the line between business-to-consumer and business-to-business activity “isn’t as clear anymore,” he said.

To reverse that trend, Umatate, 66, is seeking to reposition Nikon as a provider of components for the chipmaking industry, advanced materials and health care products, along with related services — all while seeking to retain its presence in the digital camera market. (Bloomberg)
