Huawei held its 17th annual Global Analyst Summit in Shenzhen, both onsite and online. At the event, Huawei was joined by more than 2,000 analysts, key opinion leaders, and media representatives from a spread of industries, including telecoms, internet, and finance. Together, they discussed how the industry can work jointly to weather the hard times, achieve win-win outcomes, and accelerate the arrival of the intelligent world.
At the opening of the event, Huawei’s Rotating Chairman Guo Ping delivered a keynote speech titled “Huawei: A Year and Beyond”. Guo Ping started by sharing Huawei’s experience and business results of the past year. He said, “Over the past year, many technologies became unavailable to us. Despite this, Huawei struggled to survive and is striving to move forward.”
Huawei has long been actively contributing to the ICT industry. Since it’s establishment, Huawei has been committed to bringing digital to more people, homes, and organizations, in order to move the world ahead. In the previous 30-plus years, Huawei has deployed over 1,500 networks in over 170 countries and regions, serving over 3 billion people globally. Huawei also provide smart devices to 600 million consumers. US actions against Huawei will not only hamper Huawei but also hamper the experiences of customers and consumers that use products and services of Huawei.
ICT infrastructure is the foundation of the intelligent world. Within 2025, the digital economy will represent an industry worth 23 trillion US dollars. The ICT industry still has great potential. Standing at the edge of the intelligent world, people can see more opportunities than challenges for the ICT industry.
Looking foward, Huawei will continue investing and innovating in three domains: connectivity, computing, and smart devices. They will work with customers, partners, standards organizations, and all other industry players in domains like supply chain, standards, and talent cultivation, to encourage open collaboration, promote inclusive industry development, and explore the future together.
Guo Ping stated, “Today the world is an integrated collaborative system. The trend of globalization shouldn’t and will not likely be reversed. Fragmented standards and supply chains benefit no one, and further fragmentation will have a severe impact on the entire industry. The industry as a whole should work together to strengthen IPR protection, safeguard fair competition, protect unified global standards, and promote a collaborative global supply chain.”
