【参考译文】
手机芯片厂商高通称，公司利用2014年宣布的1.5亿美元中国风险投资基金，对中国9家初创公司进行投资，该基金涵盖了物联网、大数据、人工智能等领域。
参考译文：US chipmaker Qualcomm Inc on Wednesday said it has invested in nine Chinese startups through its $150 venture capital plan, which was announced in 2014 for China's technology market in big data, artificial intelligence and the internet of things business.
解析：这一句中文本身是一个病句。主要问题是内容重叠，逻辑不清。一方面是想表达高通投资九家创业企业，一方面又想解释清楚高通用于投资的资金来源以及基金的战略目标。在翻译时，先要理顺中文的重点，即“高通用1.5亿美元中国风险投资基金投资九家中国创业企业”）以及辅助性的信息（该基金2014年宣布，涵盖了物联网、大数据、人工智能等领域）。将重点意思作为英文的主干，将说明性的信息作为修饰性的成分，如用非限定性定语从句。
