Client feedback
“In particular, the legal team led by Qiwei Zhang from Kangda Law Firm has assisted our company with multiple rounds of corporate financing and compliance consultations, including proactive planning and preparation for our potential domestic IPO down the line. Throughout successive financing rounds, Attorney Zhang’s team delivered astute overall transaction oversight and rigorous attention to granular details, enabling consummation of each transaction in a professional and efficient manner. For our compliance advisory engagements, the team exceeded our expectations by accurately identifying our compliance requirements, familiarising themselves with our actual business operations, and conducting in-depth research into national laws and local regulatory provisions. They successfully anticipated potential business risks and furnished targeted legal advice, effectively preventing future compliance pitfalls.” – Banking and finance
“Kangda Law Firm can precisely bridge the compliance requirements of capital business with the daily operation scenarios of listed companies, accurately identify the substantive impact of corporate operational defects and compliance loopholes on information disclosure, capital operations, and regulatory compliance, and proactively prevent and control corporate operational compliance risks from the perspective of the capital market.” – Capital markets
“Firstly, this firm has collaborated with our company since 2017, fully grasping our listing history, dual domestic-overseas layout and forward-looking development strategy of integrating consumer electronics with medical healthcare products. Unlike short-term service providers, the team eliminates repetitive background communication and delivers highly targeted legal advice aligned with our long-term industrial expansion plans.
Second, the firm integrates dual expertise in domestic A-share capital market regulation and cross-border legal compliance. As our business runs subsidiaries in Hong Kong and Malaysia, many daily operations involve overlapping domestic and overseas legal constraints. The firm’s team holds comprehensive cross-jurisdictional legal knowledge and successfully supported our capital increase to the Malaysian subsidiary with complete outbound investment filing compliance arrangements, a capability that distinguishes it from capital market teams focusing solely on mainland securities laws.
Third, its team stays highly sensitive to evolving regulatory policies for information disclosure, conducts thorough risk screening on all capital market documents, and provides actionable legal solutions balancing strict regulatory compliance and our commercial expansion demands. The consistent, meticulous working standard has built solid mutual trust between our management team and the firm.” – Capital markets
“The firm has a specialised team focusing on medical device manufacturers’ listings and capital operation matters. Its internally standardised service workflows cover share reform, equity financing, NEEQ listing and BSE counselling in one integrated system, forming mature service frameworks targeting the unique audit risks of medical manufacturing enterprises.
As a full-service law firm, it maintains stable cooperative relations with local legal practitioners in the US, EU and Hong Kong. The firm’s administrative and resource coordination department can quickly deploy overseas legal support resources as needed, delivering one-stop cross-border compliance verification solutions unavailable at many small and medium-sized capital market firms.” – Capital market

Xiaoyang Kang
“He has maintained a perennial legal counsel cooperation with our company since 2018, continuously providing our company with comprehensive compliance governance for listed companies and special supporting legal services for capital markets.”
“Xiaoyang Kang is our core dedicated counsel who directly handles all our capital market and cross-border legal matters, with prominent professional strengths that fit our company’s unique development needs. He combines solid A-share securities expertise with cross-border legal practical experience. Information disclosure and listed company supervision rules update frequently, and he keeps sensitive track of all new regulatory requirements to ensure all our announcements, periodic reports and capital operation documents fully comply with exchange standards. Meanwhile, he masters relevant legal norms for the Hong Kong and Malaysia markets. He led all compliance procedures for our capital injection into the Malaysian subsidiary and completed full outbound investment filing, smoothly resolving cross-border legal barriers for our overseas layout.
Also, when responding to our daily legal enquiries, he breaks down complex overlapping domestic and overseas regulatory requirements into operable guidance. He always identifies hidden compliance risks in advance for our daily operation and capital activities and balances rigid regulatory obligations with our commercial expansion demands. He took charge of our IPO project, which raised approximately RMB 1.3 billion in fundraising, and independently designed the legal framework for our restricted stock incentive plan to stabilise our core R&D and manufacturing teams. After our listing, he provides targeted legal consultation for our ongoing investment and M&A plans in the consumer electronics and healthcare integrated track, sorting out clear risk boundaries for each potential project.”
“Xiaoyang Kang is our lead attorney in charge of all capital market and cross-border compliance work for our medical device business, with outstanding practical capabilities tailored to our company’s complex historical and cross-border conditions. He excels at negotiating and resolving complicated special investment clauses. During our NEEQ listing preparation, he communicated repeatedly with multiple investment institutions, put forward balanced and feasible adjustment plans for valuation adjustment mechanisms, and successfully persuaded investors to release our company from restrictive repurchase obligations, eliminating major listing obstacles for us. Otherwise, he possesses integrated expertise covering domestic capital market audit standards and overseas medical device regulatory rules. When verifying the compliance of our offshore subsidiaries and export businesses, he sorted out the requirements of U.S. FD&C Act and EU Medical Device Directives, coordinated overseas local lawyers to issue targeted legal opinions, and integrated multi-jurisdictional compliance materials into complete submission packages acceptable to regulators.”
