On May 23, Honeycomb Energy, together with its incubation platform Doctor Octopus and Honeycomb Capital, and 36Kr, a well-known technology venture capital media, officially launched the "Global Recruitment of First Bee Industry Partners" campaign through an online release.

The theme of this event is "Innovation Makes You and Me Successful". It aims to recruit outstanding innovative technical teams in the fields of lithium batteries (new materials, new processes, and new technologies) and industrial Internet, and provide support funds for qualified innovative technology projects based on the company's strategic development goals. This will incubate advanced technologies and their applications to accelerate the implementation of smart power battery factories, lead the upgrading of smart manufacturing models in the industrial chain, accelerate the deep integration of lithium battery smart manufacturing transformation and industrial chain ecology, and create an ecological platform for the upgrading of the smart manufacturing industry. While enabling the rapid growth of enterprises, it will also inject new impetus into industrial development.

500 million fund + exclusive platform to recruit partners of Pioneer Industry

According to the recruitment policy, SVOLT will take the lead in providing a 500 million yuan innovation industry chain investment fund pool. The final selected projects will have the opportunity to share the investment fund after due diligence, and Dr. Octopus, an incubation platform under SVOLT, will provide full incubation support for the final shortlisted project teams, including the lithium battery industry's leading test environment, general platform, computing power foundation and product verification base, etc. At that time, both parties will define market-worthy topics based on industry needs and jointly complete the transformation of technology from zero to one.

Since its establishment last year, Dr. Octopus has started project research and development in AI hardware, AI algorithms and platforms. It also initiated the establishment of the AI ​​Bee Energy Alliance last year. It has currently carried out PoC verification work at the Honeycomb Energy production base with more than 10 AI Bee Energy Alliance companies, and has joined hands with three Fortune 500 companies to build advanced AI laboratories and provide a technology incubation platform.

The two major channels work together to recruit, continuously innovate and lead the industry's intelligent manufacturing upgrade

This recruitment activity will focus on industrial intelligent systems, industrial intelligent equipment, three new fields of lithium batteries, advanced battery materials, BMS, big data, industrial Internet platforms and other tracks, and will carry out recruitment simultaneously on the social and university ends.

The specific recruitment activity is expected to last for three months. It will go through four stages: project solicitation, top 30 selection, 30 to 8 roadshow and entry and signing. Finally, 8 shortlisted teams will be selected. After passing the investment due diligence, they will have the opportunity to share the 500 million yuan innovation industry chain investment fund and enter Doctor Octopus' professional incubation platform for full incubation. They are expected to sign a direct contract with Honeycomb Energy to become its global industry chain strategic partner.
