HENNGE K.K. and its subsidiaries (collectively, "HENNGE") has adopted the vision of"Change Society through Liberation of Technology" since it was founded. By making the benefits of our unique technologies and cutting-edge technologies readily available to corporations and providing them as new value, we have expanded our business to contribute to global development.
