## Summary

AI sports hardware company PongBot announced the completion of a Series B round of hundreds of millions of yuan, led by Shanghai Guotou Xiandao Fund, with participation from Yuanhe PuHua and Pudong Venture Capital, and follow-on investment from existing shareholder BlueRun Ventures. The funds will go toward R&D in sports large models, sports vision, and training decision technology, and toward expanding into global markets.
