Dow Jones Description

As a global company we have named ourselves Qimonda which works in all languages and cultural environments. Qimonda carries different meanings and allows associations in different languages. The word "Qi" of Chinese origin stands for flowing or breathing energy, while the combination of the English word "key" and the Latin word for world "mundus" is intuitively understood in the Western World as "key to the world" or as we say: "Qimonda". Our name has universal qualities and it reflects our strong global footprint in R&D and manufacturing, our worldwide customer base and our highly motivated employees who are dedicated to becoming the world's leading creative memory company.
