Drive and ambition lead to success

SoftBank Group Chairman and CEO Masayoshi Son

TOKYO -- The world economy has become increasingly unstable, despite the exponential growth of information technology. SoftBank Group Chairman and CEO Masayoshi Son spoke with The Nikkei about how his company intends to keep evolving and ensure sustainable growth in an unpredictable business environment. This year marks the 35th year since SoftBank's foundation.

Q: Recently, you have been quoted using the term "SoftBank 2.0" to emphasize the company's transition to the second stage from the foundation period. Can you tell us a little more about what that means?
