This paper discusses the direction of reconstruction needed to return the wealth of life back to the Tohoku region. The important point for revitalization of the Tohoku region is to rebuild each community. When a community is rejoined, the wealth of life in the region is restored. Social Business and Community Business have the potential to enhance the autonomy of the region. Establishing such businesses will create a sustainable local industry that will, in turn, promote linkage within the region. Social Business is expected to be the key to leading a sustainable society in Japan.
