"Little Giant" enterprises play a crucial role in key developing industries, serving as the "filling in the gaps," "strengthening the strengths," and "filling the blanks."
The concept of "Specialized, Focused, Unique, and New" was incorporated into the government's work report in March 2022. Now, cultivating and developing enterprises with this concept has become a national strategy. Currently, there are 500 national "Little Giant" specialized, focused, unique, and new enterprises in Shanghai.
On the afternoon of June 25, 2023, the "2022 Shanghai Specialized and New-Generating 'Mini Giants' Market Competitiveness Index" was released. The research report was jointly published by the Shanghai Small and Medium Enterprises Development Service Center, Shanghai United Property Exchange, and the Shanghai Industrial Transformation and Development Research Institute. This index directly reflects the development environment and resilience as well as vitality of "Mini Giants" enterprises in the 16 districts of the city, providing insights and references for the government to further serve and cultivate such enterprises.
In the overall ranking, Pudong New Area, Jiading, Minhang, and Songjiang lead with the highest number of enterprises, respectively, at 30, 18, 14, and 12, which is highly correlated with the total number of specialized and new "Little Giant" enterprises in each district. Among the listed companies, the top three industries by number of enterprises are scientific research and technical services, electronic information, and high-end equipment. This indicates that "Little Giant" enterprises play a crucial role in "filling the gaps," "strengthening the strengths," and "filling in the blanks" in key developing industries.
Ankorri Electric Co., Ltd. has been recognized. Our company was listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange's Growth Enterprise Board in 2012. We specialize in providing microgrid energy efficiency management systems and products, as well as electricity sensors. Our product ecosystem ranges from electricity sensors, power measurement and protection devices, to edge computing gateways and cloud platforms. We are a leader in our niche industry. Our R&D team consists of over 500 members, leading or participating in the formulation of multiple national/industry standards, and holds over 200 software copyrights. We have been named in various lists, including the "2021 Top 100 Private Manufacturing Enterprises in Shanghai," the "16th China Listed Company Value Selection - Top 50 Growth Enterprise Board Companies," and the "2022 Top 50 Smart Energy Enterprises." Additionally, our corporate promotional network is comprehensive, actively promoting our brand and products on platforms like WeChat, Weibo, and Douyin.
In the sub-list, we investigated enterprises from various aspects such as comprehensive strength, technological innovation, corporate credit, and core capabilities, summarizing some patterns.
In terms of comprehensive strength, the companies listed are generally large in scale, with most having been established for over 15 years and having secured multiple rounds of financing. Among them, 70% of the companies are publicly listed, and 60% of the employees earn above the industry average salary. Taking Shanghai Weipai Ge Intelligent Waterworks Co., Ltd. as an example, the company was founded in 2011 and listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in 2019, making it one of the representative enterprises in the domestic secondary water supply Internet of Things technology field.
"Technological Innovation" is a crucial indicator of a company's potential and its ability to sustain growth. The score is closely related to the company's scientific and technological achievements, patented inventions, and research and development teams.
"Corporate Credit" refers to a company's ability and track record of fulfilling its commitments, encompassing multiple assessment indicators such as the total amount of risk, creditworthiness, the number of high-risk cases, and the risk of default. From this perspective, the companies listed have a narrow gap in their scores in this category, excelling in all four indicators: creditworthiness, credit rating, high-risk cases, and default risk. The main difference lies in the variation of the total risk amount.
"The 'Core Competence' primarily reflects a company's leading and authoritative position within the industry, such as participation in national, regional, and industry-level standards development, the number of supplier and customer resources, and whether it holds various qualifications, including import and export qualifications. This is an important capability that influences a company's development. Taking Shanghai Weipu Smart Water Technology Co., Ltd. as an example, its Shanghai production base, equipped with a digital production workshop, boasts advanced manufacturing processes and has successfully passed the CMMI5 assessment and certification in the global software engineering field. Both its hardware and software products are highly competitive, and it also has a strong supplier database and customer resources."
The comprehensive total and average scores of "Mini Giants" enterprises across all districts were used to determine the regional rankings, with Pudong New Area leading the way, followed closely by Jiading, Songjiang, and Minhang. This indicates that these districts have a large number of high-quality "Mini Giants" enterprises.
