Gotion InoBat Batteries (GIB), also styled "GIB EnergyX Slovakia," is a lithium-ion battery cell joint venture between Gotion High-Tech (China, 80% stake) and Slovak battery developer InoBat Auto a.s. (20% stake).
Named counterparties identified by open-source research and written only where a primary source states the relationship — never inferred from sector or co-mention. 1 customer-side. This is a partial view: it covers the relationships we could evidence, not the company's full supply base.
Volkswagen's May 2020 press release: VW acquires 26 percent of the shares in Gotion High-Tech (GIB's 80% parent) for around EUR 1.1 billion, and Gotion is becoming a certified VW Group battery supplier in China (local MEB vehicles). The release does not mention Slovakia or Europe, and InoBat's GIB page names no customer for the Surany plant; it lists VW only among Gotion's 'strategic cooperation' partners. So VW is a sourced investor/supplier relationship of the parent, NOT a confirmed offtaker of GIB output. Prior text said 24% and cited a dead Wikipedia URL; corrected to the primary source.
Scope. Absence of a counterparty here is not evidence that none exists — most commercial sourcing is confidential and never becomes public. Rows without a share figure mean no share was disclosed, not that the relationship is small.

Descriptive trend in official policy actions on this company’s materials — a policy-pressure trend, not a price or trading signal. No forward probability is implied. Direction is measured on actions we have discovered, and discovery lags events: where the recent window is too thin to support a calm reading, the row says coverage-limited instead of easing.
