Industrial Materials: This includes adhesive tapes, high-performance films, electronic materials, and other specialized materials used in various industries.
Automotive: They supply materials and components for automobiles.
Electronics: A significant portion of their business is dedicated to providing materials for electronic devices and components.
Healthcare: They offer products and materials for medical applications.
While Nitto Denko may invest in research and development or acquire companies to expand their technological capabilities and market reach, their core function is not that of a venture capital firm focused on external investments in startups. Their investments are primarily strategic, aiming to bolster their own existing businesses and technologies rather than broadly investing in external ventures.
