Runxin Micro Technology, also known as RIVOTEK, has announced the completion of a nearly $57.5 million Series B+ financing round, marking a significant milestone in its growth as a domestic intelligent base solution provider. The funding underscores rising investor confidence in companies building full-stack alternatives across China’s semiconductor and AI infrastructure landscape.
Details of the Series B+ Financing
The latest financing round was backed by a consortium of state-owned and industrial investors, including Chongqing Changjia Zongheng Private Equity Investment Fund, Hengxu Capital, Jiangsu Strategic Emerging Industry Investment Fund, Suzhou High-Speed Railway New City State-owned Assets Management, and several regional industrial investment platforms. The diverse investor base highlights strong institutional support for Runxin Micro Technology’s strategic direction and technical roadmap. Proceeds from the round will be allocated to advancing domestic computing platform solutions, AI operating system development, and edge-side AI model innovation.
Strengthening a Full-Stack Technology Strategy
Founded five years ago, Runxin Micro Technology has focused from its inception on integrated software and hardware solutions built around domestic chips. The company has steadily developed capabilities spanning chips, operating systems, and AI applications, enabling tighter optimization across the entire technology stack. This full-chain approach is increasingly viewed as essential for overcoming deployment and scalability challenges in intelligent hardware products.
Expanding Across Multiple Application Domains
Runxin Micro Technology’s solutions are currently deployed across a wide range of sectors, including smartphones, automotive systems, robotics, AIoT devices, and other intelligent terminals. Through continuous iteration and engineering refinement, the company has supported the mass production of its technologies in commercial products. Notably, its automotive business has seen rapid growth, with multiple design wins and production deployments across core vehicle models from major car manufacturers.
Building an Ecosystem with Industry Leaders
The company has established collaborative relationships with leading technology and automotive players such as Xiaomi, vivo, and SAIC Motor. These partnerships have enabled joint ecosystem development, accelerating the commercialization of domestically developed intelligent computing platforms. By embedding its solutions into high-volume consumer and automotive products, Runxin Micro Technology has validated the reliability and adaptability of its technology in real-world environments.
Introducing the “1+6+N” Innovation Strategy
Recently, Runxin Micro Technology unveiled its “1+6+N” innovation strategy, positioning a domestic AI intelligent base as the foundation of its future development. The strategy centers on three core pillars: a domestic computing platform, an AI operating system, and edge-side AI models. Around this foundation, the company will focus on six key tracks, including mobile, automotive, robotics, AIoT, PC, and cloud, while expanding into broader application scenarios such as office, mobility, home, industrial, and healthcare environments.
Addressing Industry Shifts and Market Demand
The rapid advancement of large-scale AI models is driving a surge in demand for intelligent hardware across vertical industries. As a result, the integration of chips, operating systems, and AI models is becoming the critical technical foundation for next-generation devices. Against this backdrop, domestic chip ecosystems are entering a pivotal development phase, while sectors such as automotive are actively seeking new, reliable supply chain partners.
Solving the “Last Mile” of Commercialization
Runxin Micro Technology has positioned itself as a solution to the long-standing challenge of bringing domestic chips into large-scale commercial deployment. With in-house capabilities covering development, integration, and optimization, the company aims to bridge the gap between chip design and mass-market intelligent hardware. In recent years, its solutions have already been adopted in multiple production vehicle models, demonstrating its ability to deliver at scale.
According to company leadership, the successful Series B+ round reflects investor recognition of Runxin Micro Technology’s long-term focus and technical value within the domestic chip and operating system ecosystem. Chairman Liu Qing stated that the company will continue to pursue its mission of making intelligence more accessible through fully self-developed, integrated platforms. Looking ahead, Runxin Micro Technology plans to deepen collaboration with ecosystem partners and support the global innovation ambitions of Chinese intelligent terminal companies.
