Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
地域のレジリエンスと社会のサステナビリティ、国際競争やレピュテーションリスクに対する企業の強靭さは相互強化関係にあることが示された。すなわち企業ミュージアム、公開型工場、緑地公園での自社製品を素材にした食育や環境対策に関する体験学習は地域・社会の持続可能性を高めると同時に、ブランディングとレピュテーション保護を通じて当該企業の存続性をも強化することが明らかとなった。これらは社会的責任(CSR)というよりも企業と社会の共通価値創造(CSV)と見なせる。同時に、これは製品がコモディティ化し、海外メーカーとの関係で競争優位が揺らいでいる多数の日本企業にとり、生き残りと新たなる成長を導く処方箋となる。
