Tech for Homeland

To build a beautiful homeland is the common aspiration of mankind. At Hikvision, we contribute to vibrant cities and prospering rural areas, striving to create modern, livable, and intelligent habitats. We infuse technology with a sense of warmth and compassion to meet people's growing needs for a better life.

Tech for Environment

Man and nature form a community of life, and enterprises play a crucial role in fostering a harmonious coexistence. Hikvision harnesses innovative technologies to address environmental challenges and contribute to ecological sustainability.

Tech for Industry

Hikvision leverages machine perception, artificial intelligence, and big data to drive industrial innovation and promote production, livelihood, and governance upgrading. We spearhead the digital transformation of different sectors, ensuring enterprise-wide security and fostering new growth drivers and strengths.

Tech for Community

A business is an integral part of the society; hence, it must give back to society. Hikvision sees technology as the empowering force for social development and provides products and solutions tailored to the specific needs of vulnerable groups, offering support to communities and enhancing living conditions and environments on all fronts.

Hikvision’s STAR Program for Social Good aims to provide cutting-edge technologies that help non-profit organizations and projects explore innovative ways to benefit communities and protect our valuable nature and culture. Learn more and join us to create a better world!
