| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Hikoichi Motoyama, who established the Osaka Mainichi Newspapers Jizendan, and Suketaro Hirose, founder of the Nippon Life Insurance Company Saiseikai are both well-known figures who contributed to social enterprises. However, there were many other industrialists who supported social entrepreneurs in Osaka. Examples include Taichi Nakayama of Nakayamataiyodo (currently CLUB cosmetics CO., LTD), Shinjiro Torii of Kotobukiya (currently Suntory Holdings LTD), Tokuji Hayakawa of Hayakawa Metal Industry (currently Sharp Corporation) and Etsuji Nakayama of Nakayama Steel Works LTD.
The findings of this study shed light on (1) the true state of the Osaka Blind and Dumb School established by Gohei Godai, (2) the relationship between industrialists in the Large Osaka period, particularly adherents of the Jodo sect of Buddhism, and the Osaka Shionhotokai and (3) the roles of Gonshiro Kubota and Chojiro Nitta, who were industrialists who supported the Tokufu and Yurin School (a night school).
