Initiate Change,
Embrace Change

SoftBank Group Corp. was founded in 1981 as a distributor of software for personal computers. In 1996, we established Yahoo Japan Corporation through a joint venture with the US-based Yahoo Inc. In 1999, we converted into a pure holding company and in 2006, we acquired Vodafone Japan and entered the mobile communications market. Since then we have continued to make great changes, including acquiring US-based Sprint Nextel Corporation (now Sprint Corporation) in 2013 and UK-based ARM Holdings plc (now Arm Limited) in 2016, and establishing the SoftBank Vision Fund in 2017 as a private placement fund for making investments in the technology sector on a global scale. We always look to face the new era and initiate change ourselves, and we are seeking partners who are in sync with our corporate principle and can embrace these changes.
