Approach to priority Issues
Mizuno group is focusing on improving children’s physical and athletic abilities, and extending the healthy lifespan of seniors. For the enhancement of children’s physical and athletic abilities, it is crucial to get them accustomed to physical movement from early childhood. In an aging society like today, there are hopes for extending healthy lifespans through sports. We will deploy our original programs developed by our group as community revitalization programs aimed at increasing the number of children who love to exercise and active seniors.
