Yangtze Memory Technologies Corp (YMTC) is a Chinese semiconductor integrated device manufacturer specializing in flash memory (NAND) chips. Founded in Wuhan, China, in 2016, with government investment and a goal of reducing the country's dependence on foreign chip manufacturers, the company was formerly a subsidiary of partially state-owned enterprise Tsinghua Unigroup.[4][5]

YMTC produces enterprise solid state drives under its own brand and for resellers like Lexar or HP. Its consumer products are marketed under the brand ZhiTai (Chinese: 致态).
