Hygon fuels China’s digital economy with homegrown chips

—Winner of Growth Potential Award, 2024 World Internet Conference Distinguished Contribution Award for Enterprises 

This year is the 10th anniversary of Hygon's founding, which also marks the beginning of a new decade for the World Internet Conference (WIC). Receiving this honor at such a momentous occasion holds extraordinary significance for the company. It stated that the award is not only a recognition of its achievements over the past decade and its potential for future growth, but also an affirmation of the open and progressive development of China's indigenous computing industry.

As a high-end chipmaking company, Hygon has greatly boosted China's high-end computing and digital economy growth. With continuous innovation and strong R&D investment, Hygon has made a major breakthrough in domestically built chips. This has sped up the high-level localization process of the computing industry and made Hygon a real "core" driver of the digital economy.

Hygon has independently developed high-end homegrown processors and coprocessors with high computing power, security, and reliability. They are widely used in AI, internet, telecommunications, and financial sectors, serving as a key foundation for the localization of core software and hardware facilities in various industries.

Moreover, Hygon has also propelled the opening-up and development as well as sustainable prosperity of China's computing industry. By deeply practicing the concept of open and win-win cooperation, it has maintained close ties with upstream and downstream players in the industry.

Hygon has now established the "Photon Cooperation Organization" open ecosystem, which involves over 4,000 partners and spans various industries. This has laid a solid foundation for China's high-end computing industry.

Over the next decade, Hygon will continue to play an increasingly important role in driving industrial growth. It will champion the comprehensive empowerment of AI to enhance new quality productive forces, foster continuous progress in internet technology, and stimulate the vigorous growth of the digital economy

Hygon is committed to contributing more Chinese wisdom and strength to the effort of building a community with a shared future in cyberspace.
