Human Capital

Integral's Human Capital Philosophy

Companies are made of people. This principle applies not only to our investee companies but also to our group. We are committed to creating a workplace environment where each individual can work with enthusiasm and maximize their performance. To develop professional talent worthy of being a "Trusted Investor," we strengthen our human capital through the accumulation of wisdom and mutual learning.

Human Resource Development Policy

Through our unique talent development program called "Integral Dojo," we aim to nurture individuals who possess not only expertise and knowledge but also strong character and empathy. Furthermore, we strive to build a professional organization where such individuals unite to pursue both social value creation and investment returns.
