WISESTONE is a compound word combining WISE (intelligent) and STONE (raw stone).
It conveys the idea that a raw stone [full of limitless potential] transforms into a gemstone
through its own wisdom and effort, symbolizing WISESTONE’s boundless capacity for growth.

The orange wave-shaped “W”, derived from the initials of WISESTONE, represents the high-quality technologies
born from the company’s passion and drive.
