PCH International comes pretty close. They even have an accelerator program[1] to help hardware startups to manufacture their products in China.

I usually don't like to comment on rumors. I heard that some people from Amazon are already working on a AWS-equivalent for hardware too based on their experiences from manufacturing the Kindle. If you know anyone from Lab126[2], ask them about it.

PCH is the global leader for supply chain management and manufacturing (they make some of the most popular products we all use today) and they also have a new accelerator program launching this summer.

But accelerators are generally reserved for people with little to no experience in the craft, bare-bones resources and simply just ideas... They help a lot and bring great resources (connections, labs, some get little funding) but I've personally never been a big accelerator supporter... Except YC, which seems to have a 90%+ funding rate once you pass... But this is a subjective position here.
