Daikin Held Fresh Graduate Development Program Batch 8

Kembali menggelar “Roda-Roda Ramadan yang menjadi salahsatu agenda inisiatif tahunan perusahaan, DAIKIN menyalurkan 1000 paket sembako (sembilan bahan pokok). Menyasar kelompok masyarakat yang membutuhkan, pelaksanaan Roda-Roda Ramadan tahun ini menjadi kolaborasi dua perusahaan DAIKIN di Indonesia yaitu PT Daikin Airconditioning Indonesia dan PT Daikin Industries Indonesia. Selain bagi masyarakat desa Pasirranji di Cikarang, DAIKIN juga mendistribusikan paket sembako ini bagi penghuni tiga panti sosial yang berada di area Jakarta. “Melalui pelaksanaan Roda-Roda Ramadan, kami berharap dapat berbagi kebahagiaan dan manfaat nyata bagi kelompok masyarakat penerimanya,” ujar Budi Mulia, Direktur PT Daikin Airconditioning Indonesia dan PT Daikin Industries Indonesia. Lebih lanjut Budi Mulia menyatakan, kegiatan ini sekaligus merupakan bagian komitmen perusahaan untuk terus hadir dan berdampak positif bagi lingkungan dan komunitas sekitar secara berkelanjutan. Tentang Roda-Roda Ramadan sebagai inisiatif sosial berkelanjutan dari perusahaan, penyelenggaraannya terhitung menjadi tahun ke-enam sejak program ini mulai bergulir. Dalam pelaksanaannya, beragam donasi dengan berbagai cakupan daerah distribusi dilakukan untuk menyentuh komunitas masyarakat yang membutuhkan dukungan. Penyelenggaraan tahun ini yang salahsatunya mengambil tempat di desa Pasirranji, Cikarang Pusat, pun tak lepas dari pertimbangan lokasinya yang berdekatan dengan pabrik AC hunian DAIKIN di Indonesia. Berdiri di kawasan industri Greenland International Industrial Center (GIIC) Deltamas di Cikarang, fasilitas produksi ini tercatat menjadi pabrik AC hunian skala penuh pertama di Indonesia yang beroperasi dibawah supervisi dan standar kualitas Jepang. “Dengan distribusi sembako di desa Pasirranji ini, kami ingin memperluas dampak nyata kehadiran pabrik ini bagi masyarakat dan komunitas sekitarnya. Tak hanya penyediaan produk berkualitas dan lapangan kerja, namun juga memberi perhatian pada kelompok masyarakat yang membutuhkan di bulan Ramadan,” ujar Budi Mulia lagi.

Using LexisNexis' patent evaluation metrics, the assessment measures the value of patent portfolios based on factors such as the total number of citations and the market size protected by patents. To contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions across the industry, Daikin has allowed other companies to use a number of its patents. In December 2019, the company began participating with WIPO GREEN*, the clearinghouse arm of the UN agency specializing in intellectual property, and it registered a total of 419 patents relating to air conditioners that use the low global warming potential refrigerant R32. WIPO GREEN is an online platform that introduces sustainable technologies to the world and encourages the sharing and mutual utilization of them. Daikin has joined forces with WIPO GREEN to promote the widespread use of R32 air conditioners worldwide and reduce the environmental impact of refrigerants around the world. Moreover, in collaborative creation between startups and industry, government, and academia, Daikin is focused on creating new intellectual property by forming mechanisms that provide incentives for inventions on both sides. These efforts have facilitated the development of beneficial collaborative relationships with multiple universities and research institutes, and the number of patent applications based on active technological development through external collaboration has increased significantly both in Japan and internationally. “Daikin has been working to strengthen research and development on a global scale to achieve the growth strategy themes that it set out in its strategic management plan ‘Fusion 25.’ These include ‘Challenge to achieve carbon neutrality,’ ‘Promotion of Solutions business connected with customers,’ and ‘Creating value with air,’” explains Takeo Abe, General Manager, Intellectual Property Department of Daikin Industries, Ltd. “In addition to acquiring IP intellectual property rights and avoiding IP infringement with other companies, Daikin will continue to promote IP activities that contribute to its business by focusing on creating intellectual property through industry-industry and industry-academia collaborations and building relationships through free access to patents.” Going forward, Daikin will continue to protect and leverage intellectual property that drives business growth on a global scale, while contributing to the realization of a sustainable society. *An organization within the United Nations World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).
