In July 2022, the "Asian Gallium Oxide Alliance" was launched, led by Tianjin Wonder-sino International Trade Co., Ltd., and jointly with research institutions and enterprises on Gallium Oxide in Asia. By the end of 2023, there were more than 40 members of the Alliance.

   The Asian Gallium Oxide Alliance is committed to building a professional exchange platform in Asia for promoting Gallium Oxide industry-university-research cooperation and collaborative innovation. The member units of the Alliance include the upstream, midstream and downstream units of the Gallium Oxide industry in Asia, and jointly promote the localization and industrialization of Gallium Oxide materials by combining the substrate, epitaxy, device, packaging, application, and technical resources of the whole industrial chain.

    As an ultra-wide band gap semiconductor material, Gallium Oxide has attracted more and more attention in the industry in recent years because of its excellent material properties and industrialization potential. China, Japan, the United States, South Korea and other countries attach great importance to Gallium Oxide as a key material, and are investing more in to research. Only by grasping the opportunity, as the fourth generation semiconductor material, can Ga₂O₃ win the future.

    With the joint efforts of the member units of the Alliance, Gallium Oxide materials will make a vital contribution to the realization of a lower carbon, more energy-saving and greener future life.
