Value Planning International, Inc. (VPI)
Message from Dr. Katsuhide Nagayama, President and CEO
In today’s information-oriented society, we, as individuals and as
public organizations, are obligated to share our ‘know-how’,
‘competence’, ‘capability’ and ‘skills’ beyond our own organizations
and by integrating such ‘knowledge’, then a new socioeconomic value
will be created. Such ‘knowledge integration’ and ‘socioeconomic value
creation’ are what Value Planning International, Inc. (VPI) aims at.
Our clients are both public and private sectors with at least one of
the three valuable assets; ‘knowledge’, ‘capability and skill’ and
‘capital’, and have a strong will to create socioeconomic value for the
international community.
It is not our high priority to gain the VPI’s profit. VPI provides the
‘platform’ for international knowledge integration that any
individuals/organizations would be able to participate in and
contribute to the better global society for our future.
Mission
VPI’s mission is to create a ‘new social capital’ valuable for everyone
in the global society through promoting the public-private partnership
(PPP) typed-projects with networking of both public and private sectors
including civil societies in the market mechanism.
For instance, while economic growth of the Asian countries is
continuously anticipated, risk factors are getting more diversified
than before. In this sense, it involves a high risk for the private
sectors to participate in the traditional private finance initiative
(PFI) typed-projects. While there have been demands for infrastructural
projects worth US$200billion every year in Asia today, the Japanese
Official Development Assistance (ODA) has been declining and it is
therefore difficult to satisfy such huge infrastructural demands.
For this reason, it is critical for the Japanese public and private
sectors to coordinate and share their social responsibilities and
contribution to Asia and the global society. We now need a new
framework to meet such huge demands and to create a new PPP market. As
the result, it is high time for the private sectors to integrate our
knowledge and engineering, capability and skills as well as capitals in
formulating PPP projects, then creating PPP market. This is our mission.
