Qi'an Investment strategically invests in Maxi Software, intensifying its position in the domestic CAE industrial software market.
Recently, Hunan Maixi Software Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Maixi Software") completed a new round of financing of nearly 100 million yuan. Qi'an Investment participated as a new investor in this round of financing. The funds raised will be mainly used for the continuous R & D of the domestic CAE software system, product iteration, and national market expansion, continuously enhancing its core competitiveness in the field of self - controllable industrial software.
Maixi Software was established in August 2020. It is a national high - tech enterprise established through the transformation of scientific and technological achievements of "High - efficiency Unstructured Self - developed CAE Software Core Algorithm, GPU Parallel Computing, and Optimal Design Platform" by Hunan University. The proportion of R & D personnel exceeds 85%.
Relying on the more than 30 - year accumulation of CAE simulation algorithms by Professor Cui Xiangyang's team at Hunan University, Maixi Software has built a full - stack domestic CAE software product system covering "MxSim Simulation + MxDesign Design + MxCloud Cloud Service + MxEdu Education". This system can not only meet the simulation needs of civil fields such as the automotive industry, aerospace, engineering machinery, electronics and electrical appliances, shipbuilding industry, and rail transit, but also be applied to complex application scenarios such as strong impact, explosion, jet flow, damage, and multi - field and multi - scale coupling in the development of high - end equipment, effectively solving the "bottleneck" problem in the simulation field.
In March 2026, the "Engineering CAE Simulation Analysis Software V1.0" independently developed by Maixi Software was successfully included in the list of the first - version software of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology for the year 2025, becoming the only first - version software selected in Hunan Province. In addition, the company has obtained multiple qualification certifications such as Hunan Province's specialized, refined, characteristic, and innovative small and medium - sized enterprises, CMMI Level 5, and ISO9001, and has participated in the formulation of 2 national standards and 4 group standards. The number of enterprise users has exceeded 300, and the application industries have continuously expanded from the automotive and consumer electronics industries to fields such as hardware, new energy, and communications, gradually growing into a leading enterprise in the domestic CAE software field.
Regarding this investment, Wang An, the managing director of Qi'an Investment, said
"Industrial simulation software is the core tool for modern industrial design and R & D, and its degree of self - controllability is directly related to the safety and competitiveness of the national manufacturing industry. Relying on the strong scientific research accumulation of Hunan University, Maixi Software has achieved major breakthroughs in CAE core algorithms and software systems. We believe that with the acceleration of the domestic substitution process and the in - depth digital transformation of the manufacturing industry, Maixi Software will welcome greater development opportunities. And this investment is also the implementation of Qi'an Investment's mission as an industrial capital to deeply cultivate Hunan, focus on industrial bottlenecks, use industrial investment as a link, and ecological empowerment as a starting point, and walk side by side with excellent entrepreneurs."
