The Leading Enterprise of the Year Award honors enterprises with exceptional leadership and industry influence, serving as authoritative recognition of long-term dedication to sector development and industrial advancement. The Market Breakthrough of the Year Award singles out companies that achieved outstanding revenue growth from single products in 2025, held leading market share in niche segments, and offered widely applicable products.

Founded in August 2011, MEGAHUNT is a high-tech enterprise specializing in chip-level security and system solutions. Guided by its corporate vision of "More Secure, More Intelligent", the company has spent over a decade focusing on financial payment secure SoC chips and general-purpose MCU chips, building a comprehensive product portfolio covering secure SoCs, general MCUs, multi-core MPUs and NFC chips.

Relying on globally rare comprehensive chip security design capabilities and superior low-power performance, MEGAHUNT has built global influence in niche sectors driven by its dual strengths of Secure and Intelligent, and has been certified as "little giants" Enterprises.

MEGAHUNT won the "Leading Enterprise of the Year Award" belongs to its long-standing core technological barriers and profound market influence accumulated in the field of financial payment security.As one of the world’s few enterprises mastering core chip security design technologies, the company has developed a complete security capability system, including high-performance security algorithm and software design, high-security true random number generation, active shielding circuit design, defenses against side-channel attacks on deep learning, and autonomous secure SoC design platform. Its products have obtained multiple authoritative certifications such as CC EAL6+, EMVCo, PCI PTS, establishing robust technical safeguards for payment security. The firm has forged stable partnerships with leading global payment terminal manufacturers including Verifone and Sunmi, ranking among the top players worldwide in secure chips for payment acceptance terminals, and acting as a key driver of upgrades for payment security and smart terminal industries.

MEGAHUNT received the Market Breakthrough of the Year Award for its innovative general secure MCU chip MH2113. Equipped with an Arm®Cortex®-M3 core, this high-performance, high-security microcontroller runs at a 216MHz main frequency and comes with abundant peripheral interfaces. It further integrates dedicated hardware encryption units supporting national cryptographic algorithms, a true random number generator, storage scrambling and other advanced security mechanisms, delivering both universal functionality and robust security. Driven by this differentiated value proposition, the MH2113 chip quickly gained market traction and recognition from numerous premium clients, delivering remarkable breakthroughs in sales volume and market reach. The product has been widely adopted by leading industry players across booming segments including LiDAR, robotic vacuum cleaners and game controllers, serving as a core pillar for the company’s expansion into the general chip market.

Behind these two awards lies MEGAHUNT’s unwavering commitment to technological innovation. By the end of 2025, the company held over 250 intellectual property rights, with major breakthroughs in key technologies such as low-power design and multi-core SoC architecture reaching internationally advanced standards.

Winning the two top honors at the IC Industry Award represents the industry’s high recognition of MEGAHUNT’s past achievements and injects strong momentum into its next phase of growth. Moving forward, MEGAHUNT will adhere to technological innovation, deepen industrial collaboration, and contribute core strengths to building a more secure, more intelligent digital economy ecosystem.
