Zhipu Seeks 15B Yuan for STAR Board IPO, 5 Months After Hong Kong Listing
Zhipu AI, a leading domestic large model unicorn, has officially launched its IPO plan on the STAR Market, aiming to raise 15 billion yuan. This move comes less than five months after its listing on the Hong Kong stock exchange. On June 1st, the company's board of directors approved resolutions regarding the issuance of A-shares and the application for listing on the Shanghai Stock Exchange's STAR Market.
On January 8th of this year, Zhipu successfully listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange as the "first large model stock." This latest capital market move is intended to further diversify its funding sources by leveraging both A-share and H-share financing channels.

This move signals that competition among domestic foundational models has entered a new phase. The large model industry remains in a high-investment period, with market competition quickly shifting from a focus on model capabilities and first-tier fundraising to a broader competition encompassing capital strength, commercialization, and long-term investment capacity. Professor Hu Yanping, a specially appointed professor at Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, noted in an interview today that the A-share market currently offers higher valuation premiums and financing quotas for technology companies, and previous listing barriers have gradually been removed — key factors driving H-share tech companies to return to the A-share market.
Zhipu's push to list on the STAR Market will not only strengthen its capital moat but also signals that leading AI companies are accelerating their efforts to secure strategic advantages in the long-term competition through multi-tier capital markets.
