On July 8, 2026, Ruiwei Technology (07656.HK) officially listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, closing at HKD 21 per share, with a market capitalization of approximately HKD 6.411 billion. This marks the first company to enter the market under the Hong Kong Stock Exchange's Chapter 18C specialized technology rules, positioning itself as a leader in 'visual embodied intelligence.'
Ruiwei's revenue from its smart civil aviation business reached CNY 172 million by the end of 2025, accounting for 38.9% of total revenue.

Looking ahead, Ruiwei aims to leverage its decade-long expertise in 3D spatial perception from airport facial recognition systems to expand into embodied intelligence robotics. The company plans to use over 50% of its IPO proceeds, approximately HKD 5.29 billion, for research and development in visual large models, embodied technology, and commercial robot hardware, targeting significant overseas revenue growth within 3 to 5 years.
