Sci-Tech Innovation Board Medical ETF Huaxia Shares Hit One-Year High, Innovative Drugs and Brain-Computer Interface Gain Policy Support

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology released on August 24 a draft for comments of the National Brain-Computer Interface Industry Standards System Construction Guidelines 2026 Edition, proposing to formulate or revise more than 40 standards in the brain-computer interface field by 2028 and to promote standards publicity and implementation among over 100 enterprises. In early trading today, consumer sector indices such as daily chemicals, tourism, and hotels and catering led gains, with the daily chemicals industry rising the most. Proya, Betaini, and SYoung Group all gained more than 5 percent, while Qingdao Kingking shot up and sealed the daily limit within two minutes, becoming the only limit-up stock in the daily chemicals sector. Brain-computer interface concept stocks have fallen an average of 15.74 percent this year, but since August the average daily turnover of 10 concept stocks has increased month on month. Beijing Beilu Pharmaceutical had an average daily turnover of 317 million yuan, up 71.83 percent month on month, ranking first. According to statistics from Securities Times Data Treasure, there are currently more than 30 A-share concept stocks involved in the brain-computer interface industry chain, with companies such as Medlander, Vishee, Meihao Medical, Apon Medical, and ZKTeco all having layouts.

Brain-computer interface technology is accelerating its move from the laboratory into clinical and consumer markets. The global market is expected to exceed 360 billion yuan by 2035, with China likely to account for more than 30 percent of that share. Neuralink has announced completion of the world's first brain-computer interface surgery implanted through the dura mater, while China's first subdural implantable brain-computer interface system has also begun national Class III medical device registration clinical trials. Companies listed in both A-share and Hong Kong markets, such as Wision Medical, Sanbo Brain Hospital, and MicroPort NeuroTech, have already achieved commercial revenue through non-invasive rehabilitation, clinical data assets, and implantable products. On the policy front, brain-computer interfaces have been included in the future industries section of the 15th Five-Year Plan. Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangdong have introduced targeted support policies, and an industry standardization technical committee has also been established. Institutions expect 2027 to become the first year of commercial explosion for brain-computer interfaces.
