In the R&D investment list, Goertek ranked 39th. In 2025, the company invested RMB 5.026 billion in R&D, representing 5.21% of its main business revenue and maintaining approximately 10% year-on-year growth.
R&D and innovation remain the cornerstone of Goertek's competitiveness and product leadership. To date, the company has filed over 38,000 patents cumulatively, with R&D efforts consistently focused on core areas including acoustics, optics, microelectronics, and precision manufacturing.
