Niu Technologies

Niu Technologies (stylized as NIU) is an electric scooter company, headquartered in Changzhou, China.[1] It was founded in 2014, and received $125M in venture capital over several rounds of funding, lead by GGV Capital.[2]

Early on, the company differentiated itself by using lithium-ion batteries, as opposed to cheaper lead-acid alternatives that were widely used in Chinese escooters at the time.[3] It had $300M in revenue in 2019.[4] As of November 2020, 98% of its sales were in China.

In 2018, the company got listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange under the ticker NIU.[5]
