Genesia Ventures, Inc. DEIB Policy

Our Commitment to DEIB

― Upholding Fairness, Equity, and Integrity for All ―

Guided by this belief, we aim to achieve our vision of “creating a society that brings prosperity and opportunities to all.” To this end, we advocate the following core values: “respect for individual will,” “creation of new value,” and “realization of an ideal society.”

Reaffirming these principles, we commit to promoting Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (hereinafter referred to as DEIB).

DEIB is indispensable for “respecting individual will.” By honoring each person’s individuality, we empower everyone to contribute to “creating new value.” This chain of value creation helps us work toward “realizing an ideal society.”

DEIB is a universally applicable concept in the regions we serve, particularly in Asia. Together with our portfolio companies and other stakeholders, we are committed to implementing DEIB principles. We believe these efforts will enhance corporate and economic performance while improving quality of life for everyone. Every member of our organization will actively lead and contribute to this endeavor.

― Achieving Shared Leadership ―

As one of our guiding principles — the Genesia Principles — Achieving Shared Leadership emphasizes that every member takes initiative, inspires others, and unites efforts to realize our vision and mission. DEIB is a fundamental part of this principle.

With this perspective, we remain committed to our foundational belief that all members understand the importance of DEIB and actively work to promote it. This ongoing commitment drives us toward achieving our vision of “creating a society that brings prosperity and opportunities to all.”

What DEIB Means to Us

DEIB represents:
D: Diversity
E: Equity
I : Inclusion
B: Belonging

We define these elements as follows:

D (Diversity)
Respecting the diverse individuality of every member.
Diversity encompasses all forms of difference — both intrinsic and extrinsic — including race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, age, and background. We believe this diversity strengthens teams and serves as a driving force for innovation.

E (Equity)
Ensuring fair and just opportunities for all members to pursue their dreams.
Equity involves providing each member with the necessary tools, information, and networks they need, while recognizing individual differences and tailoring support to enable everyone to realize their full potential.

I (Inclusion)
Fostering an environment where all individuals are valued and empowered to thrive and contribute.
Inclusion ensures that each member’s unique qualities are respected, leading to enhanced creativity and innovation within the team.

B (Belonging)
Creating a space where every member feels they can be their authentic selves.
A strong sense of belonging fosters psychological safety, enabling members to perform at their best within the organization.

Through DEIB, we aim to create an environment where diverse individuals respect each other and harness their unique qualities to drive unprecedented value creation.
