Improving prosperity for all
The NTT sustainability pillar, Improving Prosperity, focuses on leveraging ethical standards and technology to create inclusive growth and ensure equal opportunities for all. We aim to build a safer, secure, and resilient society by prioritizing three main areas: establishing shared ethical standards, driving resilience, and preparing for a new future with responsible technology. Our strategy relies on implementing strong AI Governance Frameworks and deploying cutting-edge technology in alignment with the principles of AI and sustainability.
NTT recognizes that AI Governance Frameworks are fundamental to responsible innovation. We establish high ethical standards for ourselves and share them with our business partners, ensuring full adherence to our Corporate Ethics Policy. We prioritize setting a safe, secure, and trustworthy environment for technology deployment by balancing innovation with ethics and trust. The AI compliance and governance model we employ is central to managing risk and maintaining integrity and transparency across all operations.
We work to optimize technology to achieve a more resilient society, safeguarding people from epidemics, natural disasters, and cyber-attacks. Our R&D uses AI models to predict infrastructure vulnerabilities, significantly improving disaster preparedness and recovery. This focus supports the vital infrastructure of a digitized society. By redoubling our commitment to digital security, we reinforce our determination to protect people’s personal data and achieve a more digitally resilient society.
NTT is committed to becoming a recycling-oriented company, promoting the effective use of resources from procurement through disposal, and aligning with a circular economy approach. We automate and digitize processes to reduce waste. This eliminates the need for paper-based printing in bills and order processing. Our focus on cutting-edge technology supports sustainable applications, such as photonic and optical networks that reduce power consumption across global data centers. Furthermore, leveraging AI to develop low-emission solutions connects innovation with AI and sustainability. We are committed to long-term innovation that protects our intellectual property while licensing technologies that contribute to society.
