This integrated environment is designed to attract and retain industry talent, creating an ecosystem that fosters collaboration and professional growth.
Also, the venue will host the East China Software Academy and plans to recruit 800 people this year, with the aim of reach 5.000 employees within three years and exceed 10.000 within five years. Xiaomi will collaborate with local universities such as China Southern Airlines and Nanjing University of Technology to train qualified employees and promote industry-research cooperation.
The opening of the Eastern China headquarters represents a crucial moment for Xiaomi, which continues to consolidate its position as a leader in the mobile and Internet industry. With this new R&D center, Xiaomi not only strengthens its presence in China, but also positions itself as a key player in technological development internationally.
