Hitachi Ltd
Company Profile
Business description
Hitachi is a Tokyo-based industrial conglomerate that has spent the past two decades transforming from a sprawling “General Electric of Japan” into a more focused, digital-centric company. It exited consumer electronics and hard disk drives after a record 2009 loss, and sold its thermal energy construction business in 2019. It has built scale in grid infrastructure and digital engineering through the 2020 ABB Power Grids and 2021 GlobalLogic acquisitions. Growth today is driven by grid modernization, AI/data-center demand, and rail expansion, with the strongest competitive positioning in grid equipment and rail signaling and the weakest in more commoditized industrial lines like elevators.
