The fourth funding round was led by Zhangjiang Group, a state-owned industrial park developer, Shenzhen-based private equity fund LTW Capital and a media industry fund under China Media Group, the Shanghai-headquartered artificial intelligence startup said in a statement on its WeChat account today. The market expanded to about CNY165.8 billion (USD24.6 billion) in 2020 from CNY42 billion (USD6.2 billion) in 2011, with an average annualized growth rate of nearly 20 percent, the firm said, citing data from the China Intelligent Transportation Systems Association. In March 2021, the company garnered CNY200 million by completing its third financing round, led by Shanghai-based private equity firm Guochuang Zhongding. Established in 2019, Supremind has developed VisionMind, a smart video analysis platform that can detect traffic congestion, accidents, and violations to help cities improve their traffic management.
