Following the release of the first KPMG China 50 "Chip Technology" Emerging Companies Award in 2020, KPMG joined a number of industry experts and professional organizations to continue to launch the second KPMG China "Chip Technology" Emerging Enterprise 50 Awards. In this selection process, KPMG has always adopted a rigorous and pragmatic attitude to target unlisted companies in the chip field.
