In September 2006, the company held the TORAY Advanced Materials Exhibition and TORAY Advanced Materials Symposium at the Tokyo International Forum in Tokyo's Yurakucho district as part of the commemoration of the 80th anniversary of its establishment. These events were conceived to provide a better understanding of TORAY Group and its future directions for our stakeholders represented by customers, representatives of the media, analysts, and Toray Group employees and their families.
