The Asia-Pacific digital economy is in a golden age. Countries and regions are actively exploring intelligence while promoting digital development. To date, Huawei has supported the digital transformation of more than 100,000 enterprise partners in Asia-Pacific. Through continuous technological innovation, Huawei helps the region build leading network and data center infrastructure foundations. Together, they have built OpenLabs, 5G joint innovation labs, and other platforms to meet local customers’ business needs.

Sabrina Meng, Deputy Chairwoman of the Board and CFO of Huawei, delivered an opening speech via video, in which she said: “Asia-Pacific is not only one of the world’s most vibrant regions. It has also become a role model for other regions that are trying to go digital and grow their digital economies. Huawei has been honored to be part of this process. It has been great to work with such wonderful customers and partners who are driving the region’s digital transformation.”

Meng also said: “We value research and innovation. And over the past decade, we have invested over one trillion Chinese yuan into R&D. Moving forward, we will continue to focus on creating value for customers. And we will openly collaborate with partners to provide 5.5G, cloud, digital power, and other technologies. We want to do our part to bring the benefits of digital and intelligent technologies to people in Asia-Pacific. And we want to promote the integrated development of the digital and real economies.”
