6月10日，國(guó)家官方英文媒體《中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)》網(wǎng)站及客戶端在《新經(jīng)濟(jì)前沿的獨(dú)角獸》一文中評(píng)價(jià)北醒“正在成為一家潛在的獨(dú)角獸公司”。

伴隨國(guó)家在道路交通建設(shè)上的指示出臺(tái)，激光雷達(dá)將在自動(dòng)駕駛、車路協(xié)同、智慧交通、智慧城市等交通領(lǐng)域大有作為。此前，法國(guó)市場(chǎng)研究機(jī)構(gòu)Yole Développement也在最新的報(bào)告中表示，到2025年，激光雷達(dá)設(shè)備市場(chǎng)規(guī)模將增加一倍以上，達(dá)到38億美元。從市場(chǎng)層面上看，激光雷達(dá)前景可謂一路叫好。

北醒成立于2015年，短短6年時(shí)間，已獲得包括IDG資本、順為資本、凱輝汽車基金（法雷奧LP）、達(dá)泰資本、Keywise等Top 10的資本入駐。同時(shí)也在自動(dòng)駕駛和車路協(xié)同、軌道交通等大交通領(lǐng)域陸續(xù)布局，目前北醒Horn系列長(zhǎng)距高性能3D激光雷達(dá)已經(jīng)獲得大交通落地應(yīng)用驗(yàn)證。針對(duì)現(xiàn)在外界對(duì)激光雷達(dá)頗為關(guān)注的技術(shù)路線、量產(chǎn)、成本以及可靠性的問(wèn)題，北醒也在加快突破進(jìn)度。

《中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)》報(bào)道中提到，“我們現(xiàn)在離成為一家獨(dú)角獸公司不遠(yuǎn)了，”北醒Benewake創(chuàng)始人兼首席執(zhí)行官李遠(yuǎn)說(shuō)我很期待這一天的到來(lái)，因?yàn)樗鼘?biāo)志著一個(gè)由智能車輛和智能鐵路系統(tǒng)驅(qū)動(dòng)的新的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)點(diǎn)。”

新經(jīng)濟(jì)前沿的獨(dú)角獸

杜娟 | chinadaily.com.cn | 更新于：2021-07-15

北京中關(guān)村地區(qū)一家專注于開(kāi)發(fā)“機(jī)器人之眼”激光雷達(dá)的高科技公司北醒（北京）光子科技有限公司，正在成為一家潛在的獨(dú)角獸公司。

“我們現(xiàn)在離成為一家獨(dú)角獸公司不遠(yuǎn)了，”Benewake創(chuàng)始人兼首席執(zhí)行官李遠(yuǎn)說(shuō)我很期待這一天的到來(lái)，因?yàn)樗鼘?biāo)志著一個(gè)由智能車輛和智能鐵路系統(tǒng)驅(qū)動(dòng)的新的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)點(diǎn)?！?/p>

李遠(yuǎn)說(shuō)，對(duì)于一家正在成長(zhǎng)為行業(yè)領(lǐng)軍企業(yè)的初創(chuàng)企業(yè)來(lái)說(shuō)，成為獨(dú)角獸是一個(gè)中期階段。潛在獨(dú)角獸公司數(shù)量的增加意味著在充滿活力的經(jīng)濟(jì)中有更多的可能性。

“高端人才、扶持政策以及良好的創(chuàng)業(yè)氛圍，是北京成為獨(dú)角獸和潛在獨(dú)角獸最佳之地的關(guān)鍵原因，”李遠(yuǎn)說(shuō)。作為一家激光雷達(dá)開(kāi)發(fā)商，其合作伙伴和客戶如自動(dòng)駕駛汽車廠商和高速列車科研機(jī)構(gòu)，大多都在首都。

“我相信潛在的獨(dú)角獸將為國(guó)家經(jīng)濟(jì)做出巨大貢獻(xiàn)，對(duì)這些公司的研究反映了新興產(chǎn)業(yè)的最新發(fā)展方向，”李遠(yuǎn)說(shuō)。

Unicorns on cutting edge of new economy

By DU JUAN | CHINA DAILY | Updated:July 15, 2021

Benewake Co, a high-tech company focusing on developing the "eyes of the robots"－LiDAR－in Beijing's Zhongguancun area, is on its way to become a potential unicorn.

"We are not far from becoming a unicorn company now," said Li Yuan, founder and chief executive of Benewake. "I'm looking forward to the day it happens since it will mark the boost of a new economic growth point driven by smart vehicles and intelligent railway system."

Li said becoming a unicorn is the middle-stage for a startup that is on its way to become a leading enterprise in an industry. The increasing number of potential unicorn companies means more possibilities in a vibrant economy.

"The high-end talents, supportive policies, as well as the great entrepreneurial climate are key reasons for Beijing becoming the best land for both unicorns and potential unicorns," Li said. As a LiDAR developer, its partners and clients such as autonomous vehicle producers and high-speed railway technology institutions are mostly based in the capital.

"I believe the potential unicorns will contribute greatly to the country's economy and the research of those companies has reflected the latest direction of the new industries," Li said.
