July 2026
At the 8th Gaogong Hydrogen Energy Industry Summit which was held on July 7, 2026, one of the industry’s leading gatherings for hydrogen technology and investment. The founder of Syntech Partner was in the summit’s opening roundtable dialogue, moderated by Dr. Zhang Xiaofei, Chairman of Gaogong Hydrogen, alongside founders from Qingtong, LONGi Hydrogen China, and SinoHykey MEA.
Industry Insights from the Roundtable
The discussion offered a candid look at the state of the hydrogen sector. Panelists agreed that the industry faces real pressure to reach breakeven, prompting a shift away from rapid market expansion toward more focused, structured operations — with an emphasis on high- quality orders, deeper customer relationships, and stronger repurchase rates.
There was shared optimism that the second half of the year will bring a gradual recovery, with existing customers forming the backbone of stability while new clients continue to enter the market. Across the conversation, one theme stood out: long-term trust and word- of-mouth reputation are becoming the core drivers of success in the sector.
Our Strategic Partner’s Investment Approach
During the roundtable, our founder shared how we invest in the hydrogen space through the Anhui New Energy & Hydrogen Sub-Fund, which applies an “industry + capital” model. Using a venture capital lens, the fund identifies premium hydrogen application scenarios where customers are willing to pay a green premium, while actively building pilot closed-loop hydrogen ecosystems.
Our deep industrial roots and team of serial entrepreneurs give the firm a distinct advantage — a genuine understanding of the hardships of building a company and the discipline required to scale one. Beyond capital, Syntech Partner supports Tai Partner and its portfolio companies with industrial resources, cross-border insights, and hands-on operational expertise to help them navigate market cycles effectively.
