Xiaomi Corporation
We have not yet found publicly recorded donations from Xiaomi. Absence of records does not confirm absence of support.
Filed under: Tech companies · Household & consumer goods brands · Companies that support Israel
Background
Xiaomi products are widely sold in Israel, but through Hemilton, an independent Israeli company that holds the exclusive Xiaomi franchise/import rights (reportedly paying Xiaomi about $10 million over 10 years for them) and has also announced plans to import Xiaomi electric cars. Commercial availability via an independent importer is a business relationship of the local distributor, not corporate support by Xiaomi. Unlike several other Chinese tech giants, Xiaomi has no documented Israeli R&D center, acquisition, startup investment or donation on record.
