China’s GigaDevice Semiconductor is targeting to raise up to HK$4.68 billion ($601.47 million) in an initial public offering in Hong Kong, according to a filing with the exchange on Wednesday.

The semiconductor firm’s Hong Kong listing plans come amid a wave of Chinese artificial intelligence and chip companies seeking to raise funds in Hong Kong’s booming IPO market.

GigaDevice is offering 28.9 million H shares under the listing, with a maximum offer price of HK$162.00 apiece.

Chinese AI startup MiniMax Group is also aiming to raise up to HK$4.19 billion in a Hong Kong IPO, a separate exchange filing showed on Wednesday.
