CnTechPost — a sister site to CnEVPost — originated in late 2019 as a side project by Phate Zhang.
By late 2020, CnEVPost, dedicated to covering China's EV industry, was established, and Phate began focusing more resources on this new platform.
By mid-2021, due to the difficulty of maintaining content updates for both sites simultaneously, CnTechPost ceased operations.
Over the past five years, Phate and his small team have focused entirely on China's EV sector, establishing CnEVPost as one of the premier English-language sources for information about China's EV industry.
Now, with CnEVPost operating at a mature and stable level and the team steadily expanding, we have more resources and believe the time is right to relaunch CnTechPost.
CnTechPost was the origin of our dream to introduce China's technology to the world. After five years of operating CnEVPost, we have gained a deeper understanding of how to do this effectively.
During 2019-2020, CnTechPost operated as a purely hobby-driven project, covering an extremely broad range of topics including hardware, software, science, big tech firms, cutting-edge technologies, and even health.
The relaunched CnTechPost will no longer be an interest-driven site. Instead, like CnEVPost, it will provide professional coverage serving industry observers, analysts, investors, and decision-makers.
This means CnTechPost's coverage will focus more intently on content that could influence industry trends and capital market performance.
These topics are also the focus of major Western media outlets, and we are committed to ensuring everyone interested in Chinese tech stays informed about the latest developments.
Like CnEVPost, we never seek partnerships with the companies we cover to avoid conflicts of interest. We also do not accept any external investment.
To date, CnEVPost's revenue has come solely from Google ads and subscription fees for its subsidiary site, CnEVData.
In the foreseeable future, CnTechPost's revenue will come solely from Google ads. Your greatest support is simply not blocking ads on our site.
We welcome suggestions of any kind. Please send them to Phate's email: phate@cntechpost.com.
