The project brings \u201cpossibilities\u201d to a large number of people by fusing Toppan\u2019s technologies with work by artists with disabilities. It is also one of the activities of Toppan\u2019s Human Resource Development Laboratory,1 a hub for R&amp;D on next-generation human asset development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kanosei Art Project has been recognized for combining art with Toppan\u2019s technologies to create a new, sustainable scheme that addresses a social issue and contributes to economic activity. It was also commended for the way in which it is linked to human asset development through employees\u2019 participation in new business models, which drives the potential for further expansion of support in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Toppan will continue to work with all its stakeholders to contribute to society and culture through wide-ranging activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe feel greatly honored to receive this award. This is not something that Toppan has achieved on its own. It has been made possible by the cooperation of all the organizations and people who have supported the project, and I would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone involved,\u201d said Hideharu Maro, Toppan\u2019s President &amp; Representative Director. \u201cActivities to support the arts and culture are directly linked to Toppan\u2019s business. We have endeavored to contribute to society and address social issues as a mainstay of information and culture for 122 years since our founding. Leveraging \u2018printing technologies\u2019 to deliver diverse content and support a rich and vibrant society is the essence of our business and part of our DNA.
