The Chinese parent firm of an American company seeking to build a manufacturing facility near several U.S. military bases scrubbed its website less than a week after a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation exposed the firms’ Chinese government ties.
The Chinese parent company of Cnano Technology USA (Cnano USA) removed all mention of the firm’s involvement in the Chinese government’s 863 Program, which the U.S. government has accused of working to steal U.S. technology, a DCNF review of the “About Us” page on the firm’s website found. The DCNF recently reported that Cnano USA intends to manufacture liquid conductive paste for electric vehicles and other devices at a forthcoming $95 million Kansas facility located just 35 miles from Fort Leavenworth and other Midwestern military sites.
Cnano USA is a wholly-owned subsidiary of C-Nano Technology Co., Ltd., which, in turn, is an entity that China-based Cnano Jiangsu Technology Co., Ltd. (Cnano Jiangsu) established in the British Virgin Islands, the DCNF reported based on research conducted by The Heritage Foundation Oversight Project and Heritage Action.
On Dec. 22, 2023, the DCNF revealed that Cnano Jiangsu employs 28 Chinese Communist Party (CCP) members, promotes CCP ideology and that the company has also participated in the Chinese government’s so-called “863 Program,” which supports the development of China’s military and “provides funding and guidance for efforts to clandestinely acquire U.S. technology and sensitive economic information,” according to the U.S. Director of National Intelligence.
