2017-08-02

On August 1, 2017 Meidensha Corporation (Meiden) will open an office in Silicon Valley in San Jose, California, as a West Coast base of its subsidiary Meiden America, Inc., with the aim of expanding sales in the North American market.

Meiden America has marketed automotive testing systems; vacuum capacitors and other semiconductor-related products; and ceramic flatsheet membrane systems for water treatment (water supply, sewerage and industrial waste) on the West Coast. Meiden will strengthen its service and business operations by establishing the office in Silicon Valley in proximity to its West Coast clients.

A Silicon Valley office—where many leading technological firms, universities and research institutions are located—will help Meiden gather information about advances in state-of-the-art technologies related to information and communications as well as environmental preservation. Meiden researchers will create new business units for these purposes by adapting and evolving its unique array of technologies developed from decades of research and application.

Based on its partnership strategy, Meiden will also look to make full use of Silicon Valley's business incubation community to complement Meiden’s business goals and values with outside innovations.
