On February 11, Lead Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. officially rang the opening bell at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, marking its listing on the Main Board and the launch of its A+H dual-capital platform strategy. Representatives from leading global investment institutions and securities firms—including Oaktree Capital Management, Pinpoint Asset Management, Aspex Master Fund, Morgan Stanley, J.P. Morgan and CITIC Securities—joined core partners such as CATL and the company’s executive leadership to celebrate the milestone. The event highlights Lead Intelligent’s entry into international capital markets and underscores the growing global stature of China’s high-end manufacturing sector.
Founded in 1999 by Chairman Wang from a small workshop, Lead Intelligent has evolved into a global provider of intelligent manufacturing solutions. Over more than two decades, the company has expanded from specialized equipment into a diversified portfolio covering lithium-ion batteries, photovoltaics, 3C electronics, automotive systems, intelligent logistics, hydrogen energy and smart factories. Chairman Wang credited the company’s growth to the dedication of employees, the trust of partners, investor confidence and government support.
The Hong Kong listing provides Lead Intelligent with a broader capital platform to support global expansion, advanced R&D initiatives and industrial chain development. During a gala dinner following the ceremony, Executive Director Wang Lei emphasized that the listing represents a starting point rather than a conclusion. He outlined three strategic priorities for Lead Intelligent going forward:
- Technological Frontiers: Push into solid-state batteries, AI-driven manufacturing and robotics, aiming to develop unmanned factories and reinforce the company’s technology moat.
- Global Expansion: Leverage Hong Kong as a strategic hub to accelerate overseas growth, integrate global expertise and deepen collaboration on technology and capital initiatives.
- Mission-Driven Growth: Maintain the core mission of advancing industrial progress through green intelligent manufacturing, supporting global carbon neutrality efforts and extending the benefits of intelligent manufacturing worldwide.
This listing marks a pivotal moment in Lead Intelligent’s journey toward globalization and intelligent transformation. With an expanded capital base, the company plans to intensify its commitment to innovation, enhance its international presence in the new energy intelligent manufacturing sector and advance high-quality development within China’s high-end manufacturing industry.
