What Yigao Capital does

Yigao Capital (易高资本 / EAGLE Capital) is a Beijing-based private Chinese investment firm that operates an integrated six-pillar platform spanning industrial investment, equity investment, distressed/fixed-asset investment, securities investment (executed through its wholly-owned subsidiary Yige Fund Management Co. / 易格基金管理公司), fund-of-funds asset allocation, and supply-chain operations across energy, PVC, and agricultural by-products. The firm's investment thesis is explicitly aligned with China's national strategic technology priorities — artificial intelligence, quantum computing, integrated circuits, life and health, brain science, bio-synthesis, aerospace, deep earth and deep sea, embodied AI, 6G, and the zero-carbon economy — as articulated through alignment with the 15th Five-Year Plan. The firm positions itself as "patient capital" rather than a passive financial investor, deploying a proprietary "industry-academia-research-investment-management" (产学研投管) full-chain empowerment framework that combines technology mining, incubation investment, pilot deployment, joint factory construction, and business development across portfolio companies.

The platform's revenue mechanics are diversified across the six pillars: primary-market equity and industrial investments generate returns through capital appreciation and project exits; the Yige Fund subsidiary produces secondary-market income from active securities management; the FOF line generates fee-based income from diversified fund portfolios; the distressed/fixed-asset line targets undervalued quality assets and new-infrastructure combinations; and the supply-chain line earns operating profit at certainty-defining nodes in energy/PVC/agricultural by-products. Pricing and management-fee terms are negotiated bilaterally and not publicly disclosed. Distribution is relationship-driven rather than channel-driven: capital is deployed via direct bilateral negotiations with portfolio companies and syndicated rounds with co-investors including BOC International Investment, CITIC Jianxin Capital, Shenzhen Capital, Lenovo Venture Capital, Huaxi Yuanyou, Tongli Heavy Industry, Xiqiao Capital, Jinpu Investment, and Jinya Mao Wu.

The portfolio provides marquee validation of the firm's strategy: Birentech (high-end GPU) listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on January 2, 2026 as the first GPU stock of 2026; Loongson (domestic CPU) listed on the Shanghai STAR Market on June 24, 2022 as the first domestic CPU stock; Holly Futures listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in August 2022; Ant Group is a long-standing holding; and additional portfolio activity in 2024-2026 includes AI surgical robotics (Pangce Medical), AI protein-material co-design (Synthetic Era), mining autonomous driving (Berai Technology with over 1 billion yuan cumulative financing), and anti-aging AI aesthetics (MIRA). Three portfolio companies appeared on the Hurun 2021 Global Unicorn List. Marketing and brand building rely heavily on a WeChat-published cadence of weekly macro/market briefings and deep-dive industry research, plus community event sponsorships and earned media from portfolio milestones.
