People have no higher calling than to strive for the greater good of humankind and society.

The activities of the Inamori Foundation reflect the lifelong beliefs of its founder that “people have no higher calling than to strive for the greater good of humankind and society” and that “the future of humanity can be assured only through a balance between scientific progress and spiritual depth.” The Foundation seeks to promote international mutual understanding and actively contributes to peace and prosperity among all people on earth. It does this through activities of public recognition, research grants, and social contributions towards creative activities to foster science, culture, and the enrichment of the human spirit.
