Goertek inaugurated its global R&D headquarters in Qingdao on the morning of 
December 24, witnessed by relevant leaders of Qingdao City and Laoshan 
District, as well as Goertek Chairman Jiang Bin and President Jiang Long.

An innovation-driven technology company with a global vision, Goerteck invests 
6%-8% of its annual revenue in research and development. It has so far applied 
for more than 20,000 patents, of which more than 10,000 have been granted and 
over 2,400 are recognized internationally by the Patent Cooperation Treaty 
(PCT). Its acoustic, optic and microelectronic precision components and 
intelligent hardware such as virtual/augmented reality products and smart 
headsets are fully competitive around the world.

Goertek established its global R&D headquarters in Qingdao in order to 
coordinate and integrate global R&D resources, draw elite global talent, and 
propel sustained technological innovation. Infused with Goertek's mission of "a 
better life enriched by technology," the project organically combines people, 
technology and nature to interpret the profound meaning behind technology and 
beauty. Its raw concrete and GRC slabs are currently the largest among 
stand-alone buildings in China. Upon completion, the headquarters, with a total 
construction area of more than 300,000 square meters, will become a beautiful 
landmark on Goertek's global map. Goertek's global R&D headquarters will be a 
high-level R&D platform for virtual/augmented reality, acoustics, optics, new 
materials, artificial intelligence and other technological fields, meeting the 
needs for future consumer electronics development, and creating a national and 
even international information technology R&D highland to boost local 
socioeconomic development.
