Officially launched in July 2023, PanasonicWELL is an innovation arm within Panasonic Holdings Corporation working to build fully scalable family wellness businesses. We're working to gain insight into families' goals and to use state-of-the-art AI and other technologies to help families achieve the universal goals we all share: caring well, eating well, sleeping well, moving well, working well, and aging well.
With families at the center, our intention is to build a series of interconnected products within this ecosystem to tackle challenges modern families face in today's world. "Well" describes the intersection of health and wellness including mental well-being, longevity, nutrition, sleep health, mindfulness, daily productivity, and many topics that enable people to live healthier and happier lives every day. Our definition of wellness is a combination of family harmony (as supported through our service experience) and healthspan (as supported through meeting emotional, cognitive, physical and mental wellbeing).
We recognize that our mission requires the intimate privilege of being welcomed into homes with utmost data privacy, and industry-leading Responsible AI with humans in the loop to deeply understand the needs of families and how to best service those needs
