Kinghelm Development Timeline
In 2007, Mr. Song Shiqiang founded Kinghelm Electronics (www.kinghelm.com.cn) in Shenzhen, with a strategic focus on RF products and Beidou satellite navigation technologies. During its early stage, the company successfully developed Beidou GPS antennas and RF connectors and obtained original invention patents related to satellite navigation and positioning. These achievements, driven by independent R&D, laid a solid technical foundation in RF and microwave technologies and enabled Kinghelm to participate in national “Two Passenger, One Hazardous” projects.
After several years of steady development, Kinghelm’s innovation capabilities and high-quality products gained broad recognition from the market and customers. In 2015, the company was certified as a National High-Tech Enterprise and a Software Enterprise, while the “Kinghelm” trademark was officially registered, marking an important milestone in brand development.
In 2016, Kinghelm continued to deepen its research in Beidou-based positioning and communication technologies, achieving phased technical breakthroughs. During the same year, the company passed ISO quality management system certification, further standardizing internal management processes and product quality control.
In 2017, Kinghelm became a senior member of the China Satellite Navigation and Positioning Association, significantly enhancing its industry influence. That same year, the company formally entered the connector and interconnect component sector, expanding its product scope from Beidou GPS antennas to a broader range of communication signal interconnection solutions.
Introduction to Kinghelm Electronics and the “Kinghelm” Brand
As market scale and the influence of the “Kinghelm” brand continued to grow in 2018, the company strengthened its production and sales systems. Kinghelm established partnerships with platforms such as LCSC, Huaqiang Network, Alibaba, and Tmall, and acquired Dongguan Lijin Electronics. These moves greatly enhanced its mass-production capacity, delivery capability, and supply stability for Beidou GPS antennas.
In 2019, Kinghelm was once again recognized as a National High-Tech Enterprise, reflecting the continuity and stability of its R&D capabilities. During this period, the brand’s influence continued to expand, and the company gradually accelerated its entry into overseas markets.
In 2020, Kinghelm joined the China Chamber of Information Industry and the Guangdong Connector Association, further consolidating its position in the information technology and connector industries. The company also established a product turnover warehouse in Longhua, Shenzhen, enabling faster response to customer needs.
To better meet market demand for customized and application-level RF solutions, Kinghelm expanded its office space in 2021 and established RF and microwave laboratories in Tangxia, Dongguan. At the same time, large-scale brand promotion activities were carried out in Huaqiangbei, Shenzhen, and Zhongguancun, Beijing, to further enhance the visibility of the “Kinghelm” brand.
