Huawei Technologies has built up stakes in Chinese semiconductor companies and other tech businesses as the world's largest telecoms equipment maker bolsters its supply chain in the face of pressure from the United States.
"Since Huawei is only one company, we use investment and technology to help our supply chain partners become mature," he said. "It will take a long time," said one Chinese chip investor."But they don't have many good options, so they must turn to investing outside."Most of Habo Investment's deals have been in chip-related Chinese start-ups, a few of which have become part of Huawei's supply chain.
Shoulder Electronics, for example, makes RF filters that enable wireless communications but has yet to achieve compatibility for advanced 5G phones. U.S. players dominate that market segment and 3Peak generated only 300 million yuan in revenue last year, according to a prospectus it issued before listing on Shanghai's STAR market.Habo's portfolio also includes companies outside Huawei's core telecoms operations. Several investments in chips, raw materials and battery technology companies point to ambitions in self-driving cars.
