The origin of the name Huawei

Huawei was officially established in 1987. At the beginning of its establishment, communication equipment was monopolized by foreigners. It just so happened that Mr. Ren was born in the military, so he took the last two words of "Care about China and make a difference" as the brand for his own business.

There is also a theory that when President Ren registered the company, he didn’t know what to call it. He saw the slogan “China has a future” on the wall that was very loud, so he named it Huawei.
