Canon unveils ‘ONE Club 2025’ to

drive future growth

C anon Middle East (CME) held ‘ONE Club 2025’ as it cele-

brates 25 years of operations in the Middle East region and
advances into Phase 2 of its mid-term strategy. The exclusive
gathering brought together key partners and stakeholders to
align strategic priorities and explore new opportunities for
collaborative growth across the Middle East.
Over the years, ONE Club has evolved from a traditional partner
conference into a strategic platform for dialogue, knowledge sharing,
and future planning. The 2025 edition centers on CME’s four strategic
pillars — Customer of Tomorrow, Employee of Tomorrow, Partner of
Tomorrow, and Mindset of Tomorrow — which collectively define
Canon’s transformation journey and long-term growth trajectory.
Celebrating Growth and Transformation
CME continues to demonstrate strong momentum across both con-
sumer and business segments, supported by strategic investments in inno-
vation, talent, and customer-centric solutions that address the region’s
evolving market needs.
