| Abstract: | The Japanese photo and printer giant is on a roll. But it must find new ways to compete in a wired world. Canon is unlike any other Japanese company. It never established keiretsu-style relationship with suppliers or a main bank. Its chairman, Ryuzaburo Kaku, is a born iconoclast, best known in Japan as an outspoken critic of bureaucracy and corruption, long before such criticism became fashionable. Canon and Kaku have always been viewed as outsiders by Japan's cosy establishment of business leaders and bureaucrats. |
