Chinese autonomous driving technology developer Momenta is reportedly preparing for a confidential Hong Kong initial public offering (IPO), according to two sources familiar with the matter. The company publicly denied having filed for a Hong Kong listing when asked for comment by Reuters, but the sources maintain that the move is underway as part of a broader trend of Chinese firms shifting their fundraising plans to the Asian financial hub.
The potential listing comes after Momenta backed away from plans to go public in New York, a decision influenced by heightened U.S.–China geopolitical tensions and regulatory complexities. Reuters previously reported that Momenta was evaluating a pivot to HKEX following the June expiration of its approval from China’s securities regulator for a U.S. IPO. Details such as the size of the offering and the expected timeline are still unclear, and the Hong Kong stock exchange has declined to comment on the matter.
A Hong Kong listing would place Momenta among a growing roster of Chinese technology and automotive innovators choosing the city as their preferred capital-raising destination. The Hong Kong market has seen a strong rebound, with new listings raising around $32 billion by mid-November, marking the exchange’s best year since 2021 and representing a more than 200% increase from the previous year, per Dealogic data.
Momenta is considered one of China’s leading developers of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), providing technology comparable to Tesla’s supervised self-driving features capable of navigating complex urban environments. The company’s strategic investors include major global automotive players such as Toyota Motor and Bosch, highlighting its growing influence in the autonomous driving sector.
While confidentiality prevents sources from being named, the expected IPO signals continued momentum in Hong Kong’s capital markets and reflects the shifting landscape for Chinese tech firms seeking global investment opportunities.
