Hillhouse Venture Capital Invests in 3D Printing as Bestar Completes Angel and Angel+ Rounds This Year

Nanjixiong learned on October 26, 2026, that Ningbo Bestar Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. recently announced two financing rounds during the year. Hillhouse Venture Capital was the sole investor in the angel round, and Jingshuihu Venture Capital was the sole investor in the angel+ round.

Bestar develops, manufactures, and sells consumer and professional 3D printing equipment. The funding will mainly support team building, mass production of equipment, and R&D, helping bring the company's first-generation product to market.

Public information shows that Bestar was founded in 2021 and its core team comes from well-known universities and industrial manufacturers in China and abroad. Hillhouse Venture Capital has a broad advanced-manufacturing investment portfolio. Its investment in 3D printing reflects leading investors' interest in domestically developed desktop and professional 3D printing equipment.

Nanjixiong's observations

The consumer 3D printing market has grown rapidly in the past two years, and leading companies such as Bambu Lab and Creality have achieved shipments at scale. Hillhouse Venture Capital's entry may reflect confidence in continued global growth in this market.
