WHO WE ARE

Company overview

Hong Kong Zhongke Hangxing Technology Co., Limited (香港中科航星科技有限公司) is the ZK-Storage group’s outward-facing entity for international business and partnerships. Research, development and manufacturing are carried out together with its affiliate, Shenzhen Zhongke Hangxing Technology Co., Ltd. (深圳市中科航星科技有限公司), whose founding team has worked in electronics manufacturing since 1996 — nearly three decades — building full-chain capability across semiconductor R&D, intelligent-terminal production and systems solutions. The group runs a team of ~49 people, focused on R&D and engineering delivery, with Chief Scientist Wang Qiyuan (Director of the BISTU Computing Center) leading the core technology and CAS Academician Chen Guoliang as technical advisor.

Guided by “innovation-driven, quality-first,” the group focuses on AI compute infrastructure. With disaggregated storage as its core architecture, it delivers high-bandwidth, low-latency, self-controlled all-flash accelerated storage for AI training and inference — solving the era’s pain point of GPUs that wait on data.

The business spans four forms — appliance delivery, the storage software stack, brownfield cluster retrofit and accelerated storage-compute services — offering a turnkey all-flash backbone for new AI clusters and non-disruptive speed-ups for existing data centers, with partners such as Luxshare Precision ensuring a complete path from PoC units to volume delivery.

Its flagship line, ZK-Storage, centers on the WS5000 (WS-HBMM5000), developed over ~10 years with ~RMB 1000M of cumulative investment. It is now in mass production, has passed independent third-party validation, and has 2 demo units in stock for immediate PoC.S42

Hong Kong company registration is in progress; registered office details will be published upon completion.
