Gasgoo Munich- GigaAI has officially completed its transformation into a joint-stock company. The corporate name has been updated to Beijing GigaAI Technology Co., Ltd., while its business type shifted from a limited liability company to a joint-stock limited company. The relevant industrial and commercial registration changes have recently been made public.Converting to a joint-stock structure is a mandatory prerequisite for accessing public markets. The shift from a limited liability entity to a joint-stock company signals that GigaAI has aligned its governance structure, equity architecture, and financial compliance with the standards required of a listed entity.With the company's current financing stage listed as Pre-IPO, the rebranding is widely interpreted by the market as a clear signal that its capitalization process has moved into the operational phase.Image Credit: GigaAIGigaAI has attracted significant attention from capital markets this year. Between March and June alone, the company secured nearly 1 billion yuan in a Pre-B round, roughly 1.5 billion yuan in a B1 round, and 1 billion yuan in a B2 round—totaling approximately 3.5 billion yuan raised over just three months. Huang Guan, founder and CEO, told media during the WAIC that a new funding round is nearing completion, with a post-money valuation of about $3 billion (roughly 20 billion yuan).Reports suggest GigaAI plans to submit a listing application to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange as early as the end of 2026. If all goes smoothly, it could debut in the first half of 2027, aiming to become the first "World Model" stock. The company has not yet officially confirmed specific listing arrangements.Notably, as early as the end of July, media reports stated that "GigaAI is considering launching an IPO in Hong Kong as soon as 2026." In response, GigaAI clarified that this statement was a misinterpretation of the founder's previous interview remarks and not official information released by the company. It added that there are currently no material matters requiring disclosure that have not been disclosed.GigaAI is the first domestic technology company to focus on world models. It has built a closed-loop ecosystem centered on the GigaAI, DriveDreamer, and YISU platforms, the general embodied brain GigaBrain, and the native ontology Maker. The company aims to boost productivity and creativity by over 100 times, driving the mass adoption of AGI in general embodied intelligence, autonomous driving, and content creation.Its products currently span diverse scenarios including general robotics, autonomous driving, and content creation, serving hundreds of leading clients both domestically and abroad.In April, GigaAI partnered with FAW Mould and Alibaba Cloud to implement China's first full-process solution for an embodied intelligent robot in a real-world industrial manufacturing setting.In June, GigaAI announced a deeper partnership with Longsheng Technology, planning to deploy 1,000 general robots equipped with GigaAI's world model embodied brain and the Maker series in Wuxi within the next three years.
