Over 2,000 analysts, key opinion leaders and media representatives from a range of industries, including telecom, internet and finance took part both in the summit.
They discussed on working together in the difficult times to 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.”
In the past 30-plus years, Huawei has deployed over 1,500 networks in more than 170 countries and regions, serving over 3 billion people worldwide. It also provides smart devices to 600 million consumers.
ICT infrastructure is the foundation of the intelligent world. By 2025, the digital economy will represent an industry worth 23 trillion US dollars. The ICT industry still has great potential.
Looking ahead, Huawei will continue investing and innovating in three domains: connectivity, computing, and smart devices. We 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.
“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,” Guo Ping stated.
The first Huawei Global Analyst Summit took place in 2004 and has been held annually ever since. This year’s summit runs from May 18 to 20, with a series of parallel sessions. Attendees include industry experts from around the world, who discuss and share their insights into industry trends, tech trends and global collaboration.
