Hangzhou WinaChip Electronics Technology Co., Ltd. is a national high-tech enterprise that draws on the strengths of Peking University's microelectronics expertise and was nurtured at the Zhejiang University-Peking University Institute of Information Technology. The company has spearheaded the development of a groundbreaking architecture for 3D in-memory computing AI chips. By leveraging mature domestic manufacturing processes, WinaChip has achieved computational capabilities comparable to those of advanced processes. These chips are ideally suited for large-scale model inference in cloud, edge, and endpoint applications.

Recently, WinaChip successfully secured over 1 billion yuan in Series C2 financing. This round was led by JIC Investment and co-invested by multiple professional institutions, with several existing shareholders further increasing their stakes. When combined with the over 2 billion yuan raised in Series C1 financing within the preceding two months, the company has amassed a total of 3 billion yuan in funding over the past six months. This substantial financial backing supports product development iterations and preparations for supply chain mass production.

WinaChip's self-developed, globally pioneering 3D-CIM™ AI inference chip, which incorporates 3D in-memory computing, tackles the challenges of achieving high performance, low power consumption, and cost-effectiveness in AI chips. The company aims to collaborate in building an ecosystem that encompasses memory, computing chips, and endpoint applications. With scale commercialization and mass production sales anticipated in the near future, WinaChip is poised to become one of the first companies worldwide to commercialize 3D in-memory computing AI chips.

Currently, all three chips in the company's inaugural LP-CIM™ and PCIe-CIM™ series have been successfully taped out. Formal customer testing and bulk supply are expected to commence in early 2027. WinaChip has also engaged with numerous relevant enterprises in the endpoint and cloud markets to advance solution adaptation and testing. Several participating institutions in this financing round are bullish on the company's technological edge and growth prospects. They will offer support across various dimensions, including industrial resources, to facilitate the industrialization of WinaChip's technology.
