“Xin” and “Core” perfectly match! XinHua Semiconductor wins the “China IC Unicorn” award.

On June 9, the 4th China IC Unicorn Global Live Launch Event and Awards Ceremony concluded in Nanjing. Jiangsu Xinhua Semiconductor Materials Technology Co., Ltd. made a brilliant appearance on the list and won the “China IC Unicorn” award, thanks to its innovations and breakthroughs in the field of electronic-grade silicon materials as well as its outstanding product quality.

The “China IC Unicorn” Award Selection Event is organized by CCID Consulting, a research institution directly affiliated with the Institute of Electronic Information Industry Development under the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. The organizers believe that Xinhua Semiconductor has rapidly developed under the strategic deployment of Xinxin Group, leveraging its advantages in resources, technology, and talent. Taking the revitalization of the national industry as its own responsibility, pursuing the mission of serving the country through industrial development, and fulfilling its contemporary role in semiconductor material R&D and manufacturing through technological innovation, Xinhua Semiconductor has achieved remarkable accomplishments and made positive contributions to realizing the domestic production of electronic-grade polysilicon.

In their award citation, the organizers commented: "Xinhua Semiconductor benchmarks itself against world-class companies and standards, swiftly integrating technological and equipment improvements, continuously overcoming challenges, and breaking through technical barriers. Today, both its product quality and production capacity rank among the global leaders. It has successfully broken through years of overseas technology blockades and filled a critical gap in China's domestic manufacturing of semiconductor-grade raw materials. As a key driver behind the localization of the semiconductor industry chain, Xinhua Semiconductor’s award as ‘China’s IC Unicorn’ is well-deserved."

Jiang Wenwu, General Manager of Xinhua Semiconductor, delivered a speech on stage to accept the award. He stated that, amid the global new round of economic and technological competition and the significant opportunities presented by the nation’s “Strengthening Chips” strategy, Xinxin Group shoulders a great responsibility of the times and eagerly embraces its national mission. Relying on its comprehensive advantages in silicon materials, the group has made deep strategic deployments in the semiconductor silicon materials industry—the foundational pillar of the modern semiconductor manufacturing sector. As the semiconductor materials arm of Xinxin Group, Xinhua Semiconductor will continue to drive technological advancements and industrial upgrades in semiconductor materials, creating core value for the nation, society, and the company itself, and continuously injecting “Xinxin Energy” into the high-quality development of the semiconductor industry.

According to the introduction, the “China IC Unicorn” awards program has been held four times to date. It primarily selects outstanding enterprises from various segments of the integrated circuit industry—including integrated circuit design, application technologies, chip manufacturing, packaging and testing, and materials—through an open nomination process. Participating companies are required to demonstrate strong R&D capabilities and technological advancement, as well as a high market position, significant industry influence, and robust market competitiveness.
