Our Story
Originally founded as Fukutake Publishing in 1955, the Benesse Group has grown into a worldwide organisation providing services across various life stages, including education, healthcare, childcare, and lifestyle offerings. Our core philosophy, “Benesse” or ”well-being”, has shaped everything we do since its introduction in 1990.
The Benesse Group is a global corporation with a people-oriented culture. We see ourselves as more than just a business; we’re dedicated to making a positive impact on society. Our focus is on fostering a culture that prioritises people’s well-being above all else.

For over three decades, Benesse Holdings, Inc., and the Fukutake Foundation have collaborated to cultivate communities with a unique emphasis on art. Through the Benesse Art Site Naoshima initiative, they have curated projects and activities that integrate artwork into the scenic landscape of Japan’s Seto Inland Sea. Utilising specially designed structures and the natural beauty of Naoshima Island, the exhibited artwork transcends conventional gallery spaces, extending into outdoor settings that are intrinsically linked to the island’s essence.dfdfdfdffa
