CEO's greeting
        
        Founder and CEO
        Christian Deutinger
      
        Date of birth: 20th November 1972
        Place of birth: Munich, Germany
        Languages: German・English・Spanish・Japanese
      
        I majored in precision mechanical engineering at the Technical
        University of Munich, Germany. After graduating, I got a job at
        Philips, a major electric company, and was involved in manufacturing
        semiconductors and inspection equipment.
        
        Thereafter, I worked for Japanese support departments at Siemens, Tokyo Electron
        and ICOS Vision Systems.
        
        In 1996, in order to build a comfortable, low maintenance cost house
        for private use, I designed and built a "Passiv House"; a concept
        that, at that time, was still in its infancy in Germany. When I came
        to Japan and experienced the hot summer, I had the urge to build a
        Japanese style "Passiv house" for comfortable living standards, while
        drastically cutting energy bills. Therefore, I went to graduate school
        and studied technology management and Japanese energy business. In
        October 2009, we introduced the heat recovery ventilation system
        "inVENTer" for the first time in Japan, as the first phase of Passiv
        Energy, and launched a business that contributes to reducing bad
        environmental impacts such as CO2, while promoting comfortable living
        space.
        In March 2010, I graduated from MOT(engineering management department)
        at the Shibaura Institute of Technology graduate school.
        
        
        Japan has internationally pledged a high CO2 reduction target of 25%
        and gained high respect worldwide as a nation of environmental
        achievement. Under these circumstances, I want to introduce high-tech
        environmental technologies from Japan to foreign countries and vice
        versa, in order to do my part for the continuation of a wealthy
        society, even if my contribution may only be a small one.
