Information2 Software Co., Ltd. (Stock Code: 688435) was founded on August 12, 2011, headquartered in Shanghai, China. It is a software development company specialized in data protection and cloud data management, committed to the research and development of data replication, backup, disaster recovery, migration and big data synchronization technologies.
Information2 has developed and promoted a series of product lines including i2Backup, i2Availability, i2CDP, i2Stream, etc., which are widely used in financial, telecommunications, government, education, healthcare, manufacturing and other industries, helping users break down data silos, achieve data interconnection, and safeguard the development of the digital economy.
When the company was founded, Mr. Junqing Hu, the founder, named it "INFORMATION2" to symbolize the square of information and data. The name embodies the company's commitment to data protection and management, implying a focus on doubling the value of data through redundancy and reliability—just as "squaring" represents exponential growth and security. The abbreviation "i2" (derived from "Information2") further reinforces this concept, combining the phonetic translation "英方" in Chinese to form a brand identity that bridges technical meaning and cultural resonance.
This naming highlights the core mission of information2 company: to create the "square" of data (i.e., backup and replication) to ensure customers' information is always safeguarded, while delivering double value through innovative data replication technologies.
Over the past two decades, I have been engaged in data-related work, spanning from storage security to business continuity management. I have always believed that only when data flows can it realize its maximum value. I’m glad our team, customers, and partners feel the same way. That’s why they trust Information2.
Since we started in the summer of 2011, we’ve been lucky enough to work with big names like ICBC, CNPC, China Mobile, etc. Every year, I chat with CEOs and CIOs to hear their thoughts and suggestions. Thanks to our customers’ voices, i2-Series products keep evolving, creating real data value for more and more customers.
Data is the future, and we’re all in. We remain unwavering in our commitment to delivering cutting-edge solutions to our clients, while ensuring robust value creation for our partners and shareholders.
