China-based microLED developer Westlake Smoky Mountains Technology has finalized its pre-A series funding round, raising almost 100 million Yuan (around $14 million USD). Several VCs participated in this round, including Shenzhen Capital Group (SCGC), Ivy Capital, Moganshan Fund, and Lenovo Capital & Incubator Group.
WSMT developed a vertically stacked microLED architecture, targeting both microdisplays and direct-view displays. The technology originates from Hangzhou's Westlake University. The company is building a small-scale epiwafer production line in Huzhou, Zhejiang Province, China, and aims to start production by the end of 2025.
