As per “inclusive marketing,” we provide integrated support for DEI-triggered business transformation as well as for DEI strategies in relevant business sectors.

The scope of support spans from DEI promotion for inner circles to transformation into sustainable business in a diversified society.

Overall picture of Inclusive Marketing: On the premise of DEI, we support overall corporate activities and help to realize co-creation with society.


Solutions for realizing inclusive marketing

Facing DEI challenges in all business sectors and aiming to jointly realize the ideal business state required in a diversified society, the Dentsu Group provides various DEI-related business solutions, centered on DENTSU Diversity LAB, a dedicated task force. Addressing the challenges related to diversity all companies and organizations must handle, whether internally or externally, we help promote the initiatives of companies and society based on our proprietary marketing model, Inclusive Marketing®, released in 2017.

A vast range of topics, such as disability, gender (sex), multiculturalism, and generation (age, generation) need addressing. Given this, we have developed original programs, databases, and networks, and are providing them as solutions.
