From 1 April that will be reduced to three: including the new ‘Business Technologies Business’, which brings together Digital Workplace, Professional Print and Chemical Products.

Digital Workplace had accounted for 53.1% of sales, with Professional Print KM's second-largest unit at 22.3%.

Lastly, the Imaging Solution Business, which is made up of KM’s medical imaging Healthcare business, imaging of things platform FORXAI, Imaging-IoT Solutions, QOL Solutions for the care industry and Visual Solutions.

The new structure also comes with a revised executive line-up, and a number of senior execs and vice presidents will retire.

From 1 April Ken Osuga will become senior vice president and executive officer of business development for Business Technologies.

He was previously corporate senior vice president responsible for strategic projects.

Norihisa Takayama, currently corporate vice president for IIM Business and Imaging of Things in the EU, will become senior vice president and executive officer at the Business Technologies unit.

The Industrial Business will be headed by Noriyasu Kuzuhara, currently executive VP and general manager for corporate planning at HQ.

Konica Minolta said the revamped structure would clarify responsibilities, and help the group implement the goals of its 2025 medium-term business plan.

The overall group had consolidated revenues of ¥1,130bn (£5.9bn) in its most recent financial year.
