Supported by continued investment and efforts in integrated R&D and packaging, BIWIN Storage is leveraging advanced technology and full-chain collaboration to empower customers to achieve greater value and drive industry progress.

　　From Brand Upgrade to Global Market Expansion: Innovation-Driven and Sustained Growth

　　Mr. Sun first and foremost highlighted BIWIN’s significant initiative in brand upgrade in 2024. A new logo and brand slogan were unveiled: 'Infinite Storage, Unlimited Solutions'. More than a transformation of its brand image, this upgradation is an emblem to BIWIN's ongoing strategic, technological and market expansion and the demonstration of its vision to achieve continuous growth in the global storage field.

　　In the global market, BIWIN Storage achieved remarkable results in the first half of 2024, thanks to precise market positioning and efficient localized delivery. Its revenue surpassed 3.4 billion RMB, marking an almost 200% increase year-on-year. This growth reflects the successful implementation of the company's global expansion and localized operation strategies.

　　Integrated R&D and Packaging 2.0 Strategy: Building Core Competence to Drive Technological Advancement

　　BIWIN's "Integrated R&D and Packaging 2.0 Strategy" is regarded as a crucial initiative in its technological innovation and full-chain layout. Mr. Sun further elucidated BIWIN's investments in solutions, chip design, packaging and testing, and equipment development, and shared that with concentration on independent R&D and partnerships, BIWIN has now accumulated core strengths in these areas, and been capable of offering customers more high-efficiency and low-power solutions.

　　BIWIN's latest strategy not only involves a keen focus on the R&D and packaging and testing of mainstream memory, but shifts attention to more far-reaching development opportunities in high-end advanced packaging and testing technology. Powered by its dual-drive strategy, BIWIN is dedicated to further enhancing its competitiveness in the storage industry, and providing customers with innovative and cost-effective solutions.

　　Strategic Advanced Packaging and Testing Layout: Overcoming Industry Bottlenecks to Secure Future Advantages

　　In the face of the increasing technological demands and market challenges in the storage industry, BIWIN Storage is actively promoting its full-chain layout. Mr. Sun noted that, in addition to focusing on storage solution R&D, the company has also been a pioneer in establishing storage packaging capabilities in South China. By advancing its wafer-level packaging and testing layout, BIWIN has positioned itself as one of the few semiconductor storage companies capable of offering advanced packaging services.

　　With the adoption of cutting-edge technologies such as 3D/2.5D packaging, BIWIN Storage is able to deliver top-notch services to customers in reducing product power consumption, improving performance, and offering customized packaging and testing services for areas such as computing power. Mr. Sun emphasized that advanced packaging and testing is not only the consequence driven by market demand but is also the inevitable direction of future industry development. This layout will further solidify BIWIN Storage's leadership in the storage industry.

　　To accelerate the implementation of advanced packaging and testing, BIWIN Storage has chosen to establish an advanced packaging and testing factory in the Greater Bay Area. As a core hub of China's high-tech industry, the Greater Bay Area houses numerous IC design companies and innovative enterprises. However, there are still significant gaps in the packaging and testing field. BIWIN's advanced packaging and testing layout fills this gap and promotes the coordinated development of the entire industry chain.

　　Mr. Sun expressed that BIWIN Storage plans to launch its new plant in 2025 to provide more efficient and flexible packaging and testing services for customers in areas such as computing power. This layout will not only strengthen the company's competitiveness in the storage market but also inject new vitality into the Greater Bay Area's innovation ecosystem.
