Kyocera Corporation (京セラ株式会社 Kyōsera Kabushiki-gaisha) (TYO: 6971 , NYSE: KYO) is a Japanese company based in Kyoto, Japan. The company was founded as Kyoto Ceramic Co., Ltd. (京都セラミツク株式会社 Kyōto Seramikku Kabushiki-gaisha) in 1959 by Kazuo Inamori. It manufactures ceramics and printing-related devices, as well as a comprehensive line of imaging products. Kyocera acquired the famous Yashica Camera Company Ltd. in 1983, along with Yashica's prior licensing agreement with Carl Zeiss, and manufactured a line of high-quality film and digital cameras under the Yashica and Contax trade names, until Kyocera abandoned all film and digital camera production in 2005. In January 2000 Kyocera acquired photocopier manufacturer Mita Industrial, and a month later they bought the mobile phone manufacturing operations of San Diego, California-based QUALCOMM.

In the 1980s, Kyocera marketed high-end audio components, such as CD players, receivers, turntables, and cassette decks. These featured unique technology, including Kyocera ceramic-based platforms, and are sought by collectors to the present day.

 

The uniqueness of this company lies in its organizational structure, which was devised by its founder Kazuo Inamori and later became known all over the world. This company features so-called Amoeba style management. Company consists of number of profit centres, which are self managed and have their own planning and decision making responsibilities. They participate in generating their own profit. Thus each division is interested on constant improvement (cost reduction) and development. These units are allowed to compete among themselves. Similar approach to the organizational structure can be found in Czech legendary enterpreneur Bata's company in the early 20th century.

 

Kyocera are currently the shirt sponsor of Reading F.C., of the English Premiership, Kyoto Purple Sanga in the J-League, Borussia Moenchengladbach in the Bundesliga, and Atlético Paranaense in Brazil. Kyocera also sponsor Atlético's stadium, the Kyocera Arena, and have their insignia on the back of Athletico Madrid's shirts.
