“Information and Communications Technology (ICT) is evolving rapidly and the future is moving towards a highly digital and intelligent society”, explained Mr. William Wang, Head of Huawei SEA Enterprise Business Group. “The rise of Cloud Computing, Big Data, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) will reshape enterprises’ ICT systems and business models. Huawei would like to position itself as a driving force, an enabler, and a preferred partner during this digital transformation to propel our customers’ business excellence. The ICT transformation of enterprises is imperative,” added Mr. William Wang.
To help its customers address various challenges during their digital transformation and achieve business success, Huawei has envisioned a two-fold strategy known as “Platform + Ecosystem”. According to this strategy, Huawei will work with partners to build an open, flexible, elastic and secure platform. The company is dedicated to cultivating sustainable ecosystems by continuously strengthening industry alliances, open source communities, and developer platforms with the objective of collectively growing the industry and forming a community of interest that features co-existence, mutual growth, and renewal.
To achieve this, Huawei Enterprise focuses on five key industries – public safety, transportation, energy, finance, and manufacturing – and works on three core control points – advanced technology, leading platform, and leading ecosystem – to train industry-leading talents and build service abilities oriented to major customers.
