In December 2003, IHI Corporation celebrated the 150th anniversary of its establishment.

From its beginnings as a shipbuilder, IHI has expanded its operations over the years to cover a widely diversified range of machinery and equipment for use on land, in the sky and in outer space. We have consistently leveraged the accumulated knowledge, know-how and ingenuity of our corporate group to provide inspiration and direction for one new age after another.

Today, at a time of unprecedented demand for innovation and change, we continue to "Explore the Engineering Edge." This new corporate slogan expresses our commitment to searching the frontiers of engineering, vigorously and unceasingly, for never before imagined possibilities and solutions appropriate to our era.

This commitment is founded on three principles :
・To bring dreams to reality...unlimited enthusiasm for making things of high quality
・To innovate in business and technology...insatiable curiosity and unconventional thinking
・To create new value...an exceptional ability to integrate expertise in various businesses to provide total solutions

At this significant juncture, IHI and our partners and associates around the world look forward to building on the tradition of innovative leadership that sustained our first 150 years of growth and development. We will continue to explore the engineering edge, deploying all the resources and resourcefulness at our disposal to construct a better world.
