Xiaomi

Xiaomi is a global technology powerhouse founded in 2010 by Lei Jun and several partners in Beijing, China. Originally starting as a software company focused on the MIUI operating system, it quickly evolved into a hardware leader, releasing its first smartphone in 2011. The brand is renowned for its 'innovation for everyone' philosophy, offering high-quality hardware at competitive prices.

Today, Xiaomi operates on an IoT (Internet of Things) platform that connects smartphones and smart hardware. While the majority of its manufacturing occurs in mainland China, the company has established significant assembly hubs globally. Notably, it manufactures a large portion of its products for the Indian market locally under the 'Make in India' initiative and has expanded production lines to Vietnam and Indonesia to diversify its supply chain.

Xiaomi Corporation is a publicly traded entity listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. It remains an independent global brand headquartered in Beijing. The company continues to expand its ecosystem, which now includes everything from electric vehicles and home appliances to wearable tech, maintaining its position as one of the world's largest smartphone manufacturers.
