Origin of the Company Name
The company name, “Eighting,” combines the word, “eight,” with the suffix, “ing.” We chose the word “eight” from the Japanese saying, “Tumble seven times but stand up eight.”* Therefore, “eight” represents our tireless efforts to realize dreams without fear of failure. The suffix, “ing” stands for our determination to constantly advance toward greater goals. With the symbolic power of this corporate name, we are striving to be a company that provides excitement by entertaining people through the delivery of creative ideas and outstanding service.
* Tumble seven times but stand up eight (Nanakorobi Yaoki): A traditional Japanese saying which means, rising up and trying again no matter how many times you may fail.
