Usound continues to expand its supply chain strategy in close collaboration with some of the leading manufacturers that are already highly familiar with the needs of the audio product development. The Austrian company has now partnered with Gettop Acoustic, an established manufacturing partner for many recognized brands, with headquarters in Shandong, and operations in Shenzhen, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Taiwan, and other regions, apart from subsidiaries in the United States and Malaysia. 

The consumer electronics market is increasingly demanding semiconductor manufacturing standards, now also applied to microspeakers. An established manufacturer of MEMS microphones, Gettop recognized the opportunity to leverage USound's already extensive IP at a moment when product designers are starting to recognize the potential of MEMS technology. By uniting USound’s pioneering MEMS expertise with Gettop's strong manufacturing and market reach, both companies will strengthen their positions in the emerging MEMS speaker opportunity, expanding the technology's global footprint. 

"This agreement marks a significant milestone, continuing to bring MEMS speakers to the mainstream," says Ferruccio Bottoni, CEO of USound. "Partnering with Gettop allows us to further market adoption and unlock new opportunities for advanced audio applications."
 

USound's products are already integrated into consumer brands such as QCY's MeloBuds N70 earbuds. In parallel, USound is expanding its innovation into health applications with an AI biosensing platform for true wireless stereo (TWS) devices, enabling advanced features such as heart rate monitoring.

In addition, USound is advancing ultrasound-based applications, such as positioning, ranging, and object recognition, underscoring the versatility of its MEMS platform across multiple domains.

"Gettop also expressed its excitement to work with USound to bring its groundbreaking MEMS technology to a wider market. This collaboration enables us to provide next-generation audio solutions to customers around the world. The USound Gettop partnership marks a leap forward for the MEMS speaker consumer electronics market — from wearables to smart devices, and creating new opportunities for manufacturers while enhancing end-user experiences," adds Ferruccio Bottoni.
