Aratas, which inherited OMRON's founding electronic components business, entered Carlyle Group's portfolio in October. As a result, it is establishing a framework for making management decisions independently rather than as one of the group's businesses.
President Esaki Masahiko (江崎雅彦) said that independence itself is a growth strategy and outlined a policy of promoting upfront investment and strengthening resource allocation to growth areas while building a strategic partnership with Carlyle. He also indicated an intention to step up hiring of engineers.
