About Daanaa
Daanaa in Achaemenian means “wise” and “intelligent”. The term stems from the classical understanding of the four worldly elements: earth, water, air and fire. Simpler substances explain the world’s nature and matter, creating profound meaning and power. Our company uses simple solutions that address complex problems and challenges, creating deeper meaning and empowerment.
