On June 9, GEM disclosed that it has signed a cooperation agreement to jointly establish a joint laboratory for solid-state battery cathode materials and to conduct collaborative research on key technologies for the industrialization of solid-state lithium battery cathode materials. GEM plans to invest a total of 30 million yuan into the joint laboratory over five years. Of this amount, 20 million yuan will be used for the construction and operation of the joint laboratory, while the remaining 10 million yuan will be allocated for the pilot-scale conversion of laboratory technologies once they mature. The funds for the joint laboratory will be managed under a separate account at Ningbo Eastern University of Technology, earmarked exclusively for research and development activities within the joint laboratory.
