SHENZHEN, China, Oct. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

 

At the Better World Summit (BWS) hosted by Huawei in partnership with Informa

Tech, Bob Cai, Chief Marketing Officer of Huawei's Carrier Business Group,

delivered the opening speech titled "Green ICT for Green Development". "As a

leading global provider of ICT infrastructure and smart devices, Huawei

incorporates green development into everything we do. We see this as part of

our social responsibilities. In addition, Huawei is ready to become the best

partner for operators in their efforts toward carbon neutrality," said Cai.

"With our innovative products and solutions, we will help operators cut carbon

emissions and make their networks more energy efficient. We also want to work

with operators and use ICT to better enable other industries to cut carbon

emissions and become carbon neutral faster."

 

In June 2021, Huawei and Informa Tech jointly proposed the Network Carbon

Intensity (NCI) initiative, in which carbon emissions per bit of data is

defined as a new metric for green networks. Huawei emphasized that people's

pursuit of better lives must be balanced with the need for lower carbon

emissions, so the company proposed this initiative to better manage and measure

carbon reduction roadmaps.

 

During this summit, Huawei stressed the need to establish a platform for

industry collaboration on green development and said that BWS is a good

example. This platform will regularly bring together industry partners and

operators to share innovative technologies and latest practices in how to cut

carbon emissions and contribute to a greener ICT industry. According to Cai, at

MWC Barcelona 2022, Huawei will continue to hold a green development forum with

its partners to share industry practices and latest solutions, and all industry

partners and operators are welcome to attend the forum.

 

"We believe the BWS in Dubai is a good beginning. Looking ahead, we will

continue to work with our industry partners and operators to empower green

development of all industries using our innovative technologies," said Cai at

the end of his speech. "As we envision in the theme of our flagship exhibition

hall in Dubai, 'Lighting up the Future', we believe that together, we will

light up a greener future."

 

Other attendees who spoke at the event included Richard Mahony, Vice President

of Service Provider Markets of Informa Tech; Dr. Dena Assaf, UN Resident

Coordinator of the United Arab Emirates; Tommy Stadlen, Co-Founder of Giant

Ventures; Dr. Ahmed Bin Ali, Corporate Communications SVP of Etisalat; Hervé

Suquet, Group Energy SVP of Orange; Dirk Karl, Chief Procurement Officer of

MTN; Tanveer Mohammad, SVP of Global Operation of Telenor; and Aaron Jiang,

Vice President of Huawei Wireless Product Line.
