Shenzhen, China —— July 10, 2025 —— ChimeSonic held the "Industry-Academia-Research Strategic Cooperation Signing Ceremony" at its Shenzhen headquarters today, officially announcing deep strategic partnerships with top domestic universities such as Tsinghua University and Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen).
This cooperation aims to break down barriers between university research and enterprise applications. Through forms such as co-building joint laboratories, establishing special scholarships, and setting up postdoctoral workstations, it accelerates the transformation of frontier technological achievements in the fields of acoustics, artificial intelligence, and new materials.
Joint Laboratories: Conquering Key "Chokehold" Technologies
According to the agreement, ChimeSonic will co-build the "Smart Sensing and Interaction Joint Laboratory" with Tsinghua Shenzhen International Graduate School. The laboratory will focus on tackling packaging processes for micro-acoustic devices and the design of low-power edge computing chips. Meanwhile, cooperation with Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen) will focus on the application of new flexible materials in wearable devices, striving for breakthroughs in materials science to lay the foundation for the next generation of "invisible" wearable devices.
Talent Cultivation: Cradle of Future Engineers
In addition to technological R&D, talent cultivation is also a top priority of this cooperation. ChimeSonic announced the establishment of the "ChimeSonic Future Scholarship," investing 5 million RMB annually to reward outstanding master's and doctoral students in relevant disciplines. Furthermore, the company will open its advanced acoustic laboratories and pilot production lines to partner universities, providing students with valuable internship and practical opportunities.
From Lab to Market
"Universities are the source of innovation, and enterprises are the soil for innovation to land," said ChimeSonic's CTO at the signing ceremony. "We not only hope to introduce top university technologies into our products but also hope to cultivate more excellent engineers with practical capabilities for China's intelligent manufacturing through this deep industry-research integration."
