Message from the President

Continuing to create products that impacts society

Creative Technology is a place in which we promote faithful corporate activities, synchronizing corporate interests and social responsibility.

“Wisdom, Virtue, and Body”
Wisdom: The ability to understand the reasons of things and execute them accurately
Virtue: Good behavior after realizing the reason
Body: A strong mind and body nurtured to act accordingly

Based on our corporate motto, we believe that it is most important for each individual to cultivate a balanced skillset of comprehension, to understand the needs of customers in detail, to continue to provide products that satisfy them, and to value the spirit and trust of our customers.
In recent years, there have been many products that are being eliminated amid the remarkable volatility in the global economy, but Creative Technology will continue to create products that will impact society through the creative creation by fostering technology of the past and present, combining them with the innovative creativity of each and every individual involved.
