TWST: Would tell us more about how the future will
be changed?


Mr. Mino: I think what you’re going to see is the demand for increasing bandwidth as the world continues to grow. In the communications area, our products should be able to offer an attractive solution for very high bandwidth at very high speeds. So things that currently take you minutes or hours to download from a Website will take milliseconds or minutes in the future as you apply fiber optic technology and polymer waveguide technology to those types of applications.

In the bioscience area, what you’re going to see is reduced cycle time for drug development. Drugs will get to market quicker and scientists and researchers may be able to identify the causes of a lot of the diseases we don’t yet understand very well at a much faster rate. Those would be the two main impacts that we hope to have on the everyday user of those kinds of services.

TWST: Is there anything that you would like to add,
particularly with regard to the company’s strategies and longterm
objectives?


Mr. Mino: As we take a look at our long-term objectives, we think we have the opportunity to be a very high margin company because of the differentiation we bring with speed, with size, with accuracy and flexibility in the products that we provide to the marketplace.

We’re focused on being a value based company rather than a price and cost based company. We want to be part of a team that solves significant problems for the marketplace. So developing solid customer, partner, vendor and manufacturer relationships is central to our approach. And by doing that, we integrate our ability to learn, solve and provide solutions to problems into the market place in a very short period of time.
