Panasonic, a Japanese electronics business that formerly ranked first in global consumer electronics sales, is seeking fresh growth prospects.

In an interview, Kazuhiro Tsuga, the company’s CEO, said, “We aim to spend two years refining and perfecting the remaining Panasonic companies.” This would enable us to increase the company’s cash generation efficiency, freeing up hundreds of billions of yen to invest in new ideas, such as mergers and acquisitions. “

Panasonic’s EV battery industry is one such area of expansion. The business is in the process of securing a site in the United States to build next-generation 4680 batteries for Tesla Inc. and maybe other manufacturers.
