Following the signing of the global joint project during the Green Charity Cycling Event at the same summit, OMODA & JAECOO is set to build a comprehensive and effective ecological system for environmentally friendly technologies with the support of its parent company’s robust R&D and manufacturing capabilities and strong industry chain integration. Specifically, OMODA & JAECOO’s parent company will invest $3.5 million to promote public welfare activities related to water resources, ocean conservation, and biodiversity, contributing to global environmental protection efforts.
