SHENZHEN, China, March 24, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
-- Huawei Proposes a Value-Driven Model for Industrial Digitalization in the
Post-pandemic Era
Today, Huawei holds its online Industrial Digital Transformation Conference,
themed "New Value Together". Nearly 50 customers and partners from more than 10
countries and regions shared their industrial practices and jointly explored
the new value of digital transformation in the post-pandemic era.
In his speech, Mr. Ken Hu, Huawei's Rotating Chairman, pointed out that digital
transformation is speeding up across industries, and full cloud adoption will
happen 1 to 3 years earlier than expected. Going digital is no longer just for
internet companies. It's expanding to traditional industries, and from the
office to the production floor. We'll keep innovating in technology and
scenario-based solutions to help all industries take advantage of this
opportunity.
So far, Huawei has built 13 Open Labs around the world to support joint
innovation. In places like Munich and Dubai, the company is working with almost
900 ecosystem partners to incubate different solutions for industrial
scenarios. To date, it has successfully verified more than 60 solutions in
areas ranging from smart retail to smart manufacturing. On the technology side,
Huawei is innovating in areas like smart campuses, deterministic networks,
hyper-integrated data centers, smart clouds, and green energy to lay the
foundation for an intelligent future.
A Value-Driven Model for Industrial Digitalization: Create New Value Through
Continuous Improvement Based on Business and Scenarios
Ideas and models must be tested in real situations. After years of practice,
Huawei has proposed a value-driven model for industrial digitalization. Huawei
maintains that digital transformation should be focused on actual business use
and scenarios, which can then be used to create value for customers through
continuous improvement.
In his keynote speech, Mr. Peng Zhongyang, Board Member, President of
Enterprise BG, Huawei, stressed that three basic principles must be followed
during digital transformation. First, companies must continue to be
customer-centric, which is the starting point of digital transformation.
Secondly, they must seize two key factors: the convergence of technologies and
scenarios is the key to digitalization, while cloud is critical to continuous
optimization and value creation in the digital era. Thirdly, businesses should
focus on customer requirements to build a symbiotic and shared digital
ecosystem from three dimensions: scenario exploration, capacity building, and a
cooperation model to jointly create new value for industries.
New challenges and uncertainty will emerge in the post-pandemic era. Huawei
will be more open and continue to work with our 30,000 global partners to
complement each other's strengths and help overcome new challenges.
Cooperating with Customers to Create New Value in the Industry
Huawei is committed to working with customers and partners to integrate core
business scenarios with ICT technologies, and accelerate industrial
digitalization and upgrade through scenario-specific, innovative solutions.
This is also the key to the digitalization of the industry.
In the finance sector, through joint innovation with partners, Huawei has
provided NCBA Bank Kenya, the largest commercial bank in the East African sub
region, with a new digital core system. The system provides inclusive financial
services for more than 18 million users in Kenya and neighboring countries,
empowering the real economy and promoting sustainable social development. Eric
Muriuki Njagi, Director of NCBA Digital Services, said: "Our cooperation with
Huawei aims to solve current problems as well as grasp new opportunities
brought by future services."
In the transportation sector, Dr. Georgia Ayfantopoulou, Research Director
Intelligent Infrastructure, Networks, Mobility & Logistics; Deputy Director
Hellenic Institute of Transport (HIT) of Center for Research & Technology
Hellas (CERTH), took Europe as an example and shared the situation of digital
transformation of port construction. European Union (EU) ports offer services
to a global maritime fleet (Greece, for example is ranked first with a share of
17% of the world fleet in 2020). Seaports and the shipping industry are an
important nexus of the EU economy, but are facing challenges such as structural
performance gaps, lack of high-quality infrastructure at ports and other
low-performing services. To address this, the EU has formulated a strategic
agenda for the European ports, focusing on maritime infrastructure as part of
raising EU's global competitiveness.
In this context, the Green Port Proposal has been developed in collaboration
between CERTH and Huawei. Dr. Georgia Ayfantopoulou said: "The Green Port
project is deeply involved in the transformation process of the ports'
ecosystems: the users of the ports together with the port's authorities, the
cities try to solve problems of accessibility, efficiency, operation
optimization and environmental impact. Ports of the future are sustainable,
smart, multimodal and interconnected. Technology solutions from partners like
Huawei will contribute to efficiently meeting various challenges."
In the education sector, Soochow University partnered with Huawei to jointly
build a "Cloud-based Soochow University" that is digital and intelligent. With
this project, all people, environments, objects, as well as academic and
cultural activities in the campus are digitalized and mirrored on the cloud,
allowing for digital integrations in teaching, scientific research, and
management.
Xiong Sidong, President of the Soochow Iniversity, remarked in his keynote
speech: "Soochow University and Huawei have applied cutting-edge technologies
such as AI, big data, cloud computing, and IoT in the planning and construction
of a cloud-based campus for information exchange and data sharing. Our aim is
to shape a new form of university that is built with future technology and
integrates reality and virtual interactions."
In the energy industry, Gao Kunlun, CIGRE Study Committee D2 Regular Member,
and Vice President of the Global Energy Interconnection Research Institute,
pointed out that in recent years, AI is gradually being applied in many fields,
such as equipment maintenance, power grid operation, and customer service.
Whilst this effectively improves the efficiency and benefits of the power grid
it also reveals technical limitations. With the development of AI theories and
technologies, AI-powered electric power systems are now capable of knowledge
learning and independent decision-making optimization in complex environments,
playing a crucial part in key services such as autonomous power generation and
autonomous scheduling of power grids.
