About Zhilian Technology

Beidou Intelligent Connected Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd., operating under the brand BICV, is a key player in the automotive intelligent connected products sector in China. The company has positioned itself as a national-level specialized 'Little Giant' enterprise, a designation for promising tech firms.

BICV was officially formed on June 28, 2019, through the merger of Beijing Yuantel Technology and the automotive electronics division of the BDStar Navigation group. Its origins trace back to 2007 with the establishment of China TSP, Inc. A significant early milestone was a 2010 strategic partnership with Chang'an Automobile and China Unicom, which led to the first commercial deployment of a 3G connected car system. In 2023, Huarui Century Group became the controlling shareholder, and the company was officially renamed Beidou Intelligent Connected Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd.

The company's business model is centered on the research, development, production, and sale of intelligent connected solutions for the automotive industry. It serves as a Tier 1 supplier to over a dozen domestic and international Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). Headquartered in Chongqing, BICV operates a network of R&D centers and manufacturing bases in several other Chinese cities, including Shenzhen, Chengdu, and Nanjing.

BICV's product portfolio is segmented into three main areas: Intelligent Cockpit, Intelligent Driving, and Positioning Communication. The company provides solutions that integrate the cockpit with driving functions, leveraging high-precision positioning from the Beidou satellite navigation system. This 'cockpit-driving integration' is a core part of its strategy. The firm has developed a significant intellectual property portfolio with over 900 patents. Financial reports indicate a robust growth trajectory, with annual turnover surpassing RMB 3 billion.
