Evolution of J:COM 's logo and brand message
J:COM was established in January 1995 as Jupiter Telecom Co., Ltd., a joint venture between Sumitomo Corporation and TCI of the United States (currently Liberty Global, Inc. of the United States). The company name is derived from the Roman mythology's all-knowing and all-powerful god "Jupiter" and the largest planet in the solar system, so the logo is also based on Jupiter. In 2000, upon merging with Titus Communications, the second largest company in the cable television industry at the time, the brand name was changed to "J-COM Broadband," and in 2005, the brand name was changed to "J:COM." did.
In 2010, KDDI Corporation participated in management. KDDI and Sumitomo Corporation became the largest shareholders, and in April 2014, it merged with Japan Cable Net (JCN), the second largest company in the industry. As a new J:COM, we have established a new corporate philosophy, ``Let's touch more hearts. Let's support people's lives more. Let's open up tomorrow and the future.'' We have changed our brand slogan to ``Let's resonate more with you.'' "It was made.
In July 2021, the company name was changed to "JCOM Co., Ltd." and the brand message was changed to “あたらしいを、あたりまえに～Atarashiio, Atarimaeni ～ (Something New as the New Norm)”
