Transition

Since its foundation in 2011, Cross Fields has been working to connect business persons with fields of various social issues.

In the past ten years, we have faced major changes in our society.

Our society better understands the concept of SDGs and our interest in social issues have dramatically increased.
More and more companies have increasing interest in solving social issues with their businesses.
These are changes that we could not have imagined at the time of our founding.

However, few people take ownership toward social issues and actually take actions.
In fact, some companies pursue SDGs only for publicity reasons.

As a result, many social issues are left unsolved in the world.

Given these challenges and to bring change, Cross Fields has decided to renew our vision and mission.

Vision

A world where social issues continue to get solved

It is true that social issues would never disappear from the world as long as we exist. In fact, the number of complex and difficult issues would likely continue to increase.

Therefore, we aim to build a societal eco-system where social issues are not left behind and continue to get solved.

Mission

Increase the number of people who take ownership toward social issues

Deliver resources to the fields of social issues and co-create solutions

In the past 10 years, by providing people with "transformational experience in the field of social issues”, we have been nurturing many leaders who aspire to solve social issues and to take actions.

Leveraging our knowledge and experience we have cultivated through our activities, we will continue to develop our "Approach to People " on a larger and deeper scale.

Going forward, we will initiate "Approach to Issues”. We will identify resources required in the fields of social issues and deliver appropriate resources. We will co-create real solutions to social issues by collaborating with people who share the same passion.

Toward a world where social issues are not left behind, but continue to get solved.
