At the beginning of May, the 2025 Shanghai Longines Global Equestrian Championships, the highest level five-star equestrian show jumping event under the FEI, was held at the Shanghai Jiuzhi International Equestrian Center, where the world's top riders gathered in the arena, and authoritative equine veterinarians from all over the globe arrived in Shanghai one after another to escort the participating horses.
"Mr. Zhang, one of our horses has a problem and needs your medical equipment assistance!" Zhang Kang, president of Nanjing Jingkai District, did not expect that Zhang Kang, as the head of a startup, would receive such a call from the official horse veterinarian of a top-level event. Soon, the high-energy laser therapeutic instrument "MyoLight 980" developed and produced by Zhenggang Technology was transported to the racecourse, and became the "timely rain" for the emergency treatment of injured horses. Its excellent therapeutic effect has also made Zhenggang Technology famous in the industry.
Filling the gap in the market, "small track" also has "big demand".
As a niche track, the equestrian and horse industry is growing. Data show that there are currently more than 3,000 equestrian clubs in China, and with the gradual establishment and improvement of the youth training system, these data are expected to continue to grow. However, compared with the booming equestrian events in China, the supply of equine veterinarians is somewhat unable to keep up with the "beat".
"Everything related to horses, including disease prevention and treatment, feeding adjustments, nail hoof repair and other issues, we have to be involved." A few days ago, at the Hailan Horse Hospital in Jiangyin City, Director Zhang, a member of the Equine Veterinary Specialty Committee of the China Veterinary Medical Association, was carefully examining a racehorse's injuries, and after a short stay he would be on his way to another city for a clinic.
"There is a general lack of medical care in this industry, and according to statistics, there are only a handful of horse doctors in the country who have a professional license to practice medicine." Zhang Kang said, "One of the missions of our enterprise is to use technology to empower medical treatment and help solve the plight of the horse industry's lack of doctors and medicine." With keen market insight and precise grasp of the industry's development prospects, Zhengshang Technology quickly set up Harness Rehabilitation Company, aiming to plough into the field of equine sports rehabilitation.
The company's main product "Myolite 980" is just such a "machine doctor" to meet the "big demand" of the niche track, and has successfully helped many sports horses to quickly restore their athletic function and return to the race track. back on the track.
"At that time, my horse's tendon was swollen, and the foreign veterinarian diagnosed it and said I had to rest for at least 21 weeks." Ms. Liu, the owner of the horse, has a lot of feelings about this product. Accustomed to galloping in the stable, she is suffering from injuries and illnesses of the horse is heartbroken. "It's this high energy laser therapy instrument brought by Zhenggang Technology that cured my horse, it only took 2 months for the swelling to go down, and the recovery time was shortened by nearly 3 months compared to the expected time, and this instrument has become the guardian of my horse's health!"The rapid development of the domestic animal rehabilitation "new blue sea".
In the workshop of Zhengshang Technology, Zhang Kang showed this therapeutic instrument independently developed and produced by the enterprise. "It adopts high-energy laser, which can target common problems such as muscle strain, ligament tear, joint inflammation in injury, precisely penetrate the tissue and directly reach the damaged parts, and through the photobiological regulation effect, it effectively promotes cell repair and regeneration, accelerates the inflammation to subside, and significantly relieves pain."
In the "light" to ask "steed", for horse rehabilitation to bring the gospel at the same time, is on the technology is also aimed at the entire animal rehabilitation field, the layout of the future. "We have done research, in 2024, China's urban pet (dogs and cats) medical market size has reached 84.1 billion yuan, a year-on-year growth of 5.6%, the growth rate of 4.5 percentage points higher than in 2023, and is expected to exceed the 100 billion yuan mark in 2025." Zhang Kang said this means that the demand for specialized pet medical rehabilitation services will grow by leaps and bounds.
The face of pets and equestrian two highly potential "blue sea" market, is on the technology has developed and manufactured a series of physical therapy equipment, animal rehabilitation for the domestic field to prescribe a "good prescription". Starting from the second half of last year, the monthly sales of enterprise products continue to run out of the growth of the "Ang Yang curve". "Last year, we have hundreds of units of sales, this year, monthly sales have increased nearly 10 times, and shows a trend of sustained growth."
Behind the bright results is the research team's night and day efforts. It is understood that the enterprise 50% or more employees are R & D personnel, the core team gathered from the large laser, aurora photonics, Alibaba, Guomao and other well-known listed companies and industry leaders, the enterprise has obtained a total of 5 invention patents, 8 utility model patents, 21 software copyrights, product iteration and upgrading and market expansion to provide a solid technical support to drive the company in the field of exercise and rehabilitation continued innovation breakthroughs. Rehabilitation field of continuous innovation and breakthrough.Landing in Nanjing and joining hands with central enterprises Start-ups "break into butterflies".
As a horse in a niche track galloping "Nanjing dark horse", is on the technology to become the Nanjing Economic Development Zone innovative technology enterprises "cocoon into a butterfly" epitome. "At first, we have been in Shenzhen development, and then in order to be closer to the main market of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, we chose to develop in Jiangsu." Zhang Kang said, "but where to land, we have been hesitant than the selection process."
Just when the enterprise is uncertain, Nanjing Economic Development Zone reached out the "olive branch". "Nanjing Economic and Technological Development Zone continues to encourage scientific and technological innovation of special policies to attract us, for enterprise technology research and market development provides a strong impetus. At the same time, the park continues to focus on the construction of biomedical and high-end intelligent equipment industry cluster, which is highly compatible with our 'sports rehabilitation ecological chain' strategic layout, to facilitate the integration of upstream and downstream resources to form a synergistic effect."
After landing in Nanjing Economic and Technological Development Zone, is on the fruitful knot, in order to meet the needs of the product production site, this year and rented a whole floor of the Red Maple Science and Technology Park. Orders come one after another, is on the technology is busy production.
Before the "May Day" holiday, Zhengshang Technology ushered in the sales channel breakthrough "highlights", its Nanjing RuiPiao Rehabilitation Co., Ltd. and the central enterprise China Resources Pharmaceutical Business Group's China Resources Aisheng Animal Health (Jiangsu) Co. Ltd. signed a cooperation agreement with China Resources Animal Health (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd. under the central enterprise China Resources Pharmaceutical Business Group, and will jointly promote the placement of more than 10,000 units of equipment each year, so that Ruipet Rehabilitation equipment to cover the country's about 80% of large and medium-sized veterinary hospitals, is committed to "so that paralyzed pets to run again, so that the elderly pets away from pain," for the flourishing development of the pet consumer market injected into the professional medical rehabilitation of the new momentum.
"This close cooperation with the central enterprises is a 'milestone' in the development process of the enterprise, and further strengthens our confidence in plowing into Nanjing and radiating globally." Zhang Kang said that the enterprise will increase the layout around the rehabilitation ecological chain, and constantly promote the technological, intelligent and digital upgrade of products, and make the "Nanjing voice" on the broader stage of sports rehabilitation segmentation.
