Huaqin Technology

Huaqin Technology is a major Chinese ODM (original design manufacturer) known for its scale in supply-chain management and electronics manufacturing. COROS founder Lewis Wu, in a 5Y Capital piece, cited Huaqin and Longcheer Technology as the benchmarks his own firm felt it could not match in ODM scale, describing that business as demanding heavy organizational efficiency and process discipline . More recently, Huaqin has moved into venture investing as a strategic backer of AI and robotics startups: it joined the over-5-billion-RMB B+ round of large-model company StepFun in early 2026, per 5Y Capital , and is partnering with Digua Robotics, Livox Technology, and others to build robot controllers around the RDK S100 intelligent computing platform for scaled production, as reported by Linear Capital in mid-2025 .
