Ms. Nishio, former engineer of Sony, a major electronics manufacturer that commercialized lithium-ion batteries for the first time in the world, was selected for the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. At the press conference, he said, “I am very happy that the lithium-ion battery has been approved.”

The lithium-ion battery developed by Akira Yoshino, who was selected for the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, was the world's first commercialization, with former Sony engineer Mio Nishi and others involved in the world's first commercialization .

Mr. Nishi, who had a press conference on the 16th, introduced Sony's first use of the word “lithium-ion battery” and said, “Even though battery technology has been around for a long time, I am very happy that the lithium-ion battery was recognized as a Nobel Prize. "

In addition, looking back on the severe development competition with rival companies, as a factor that made it possible to commercialize ahead of the world, it is said that it will produce Sony's cultivated audio equipment and video tape technology and products that do not exist in the world over time. The corporate culture was cited.
