Huawei, a leading global provider of information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure and smart devices, will unveil its latest AI-driven technologies at Gitex Technology Week to take place in Dubai, UAE, from October 14 to 18.
 
On top of launching Huawei’s most advanced global products and solutions in the Middle East, the event will be a platform for the company to drive the region’s digital ecosystem by deepening its collaboration with partners through the signing of memorandums of understanding (MoUs), joint demonstrations of the world’s most developed digital technologies, and conferences where industry experts and leaders will gather to discuss the best path forward to building a digital Middle East, said a statement from the company.

Under the theme ‘Activate Intelligence’, Huawei’s booth will demonstrate how ICT technologies, designed to equip Middle East organisations for the next big step on the road to intelligence and digital transformation, are revolutionising the way governments, businesses, and consumers interact with the world around them.

By 2025, the world will see upwards of 40 billion smart devices. More than 86 per cent of businesses and organisations will use AI, and data utilisation will reach 80 per cent. Like air we breathe, AI services will be everywhere, creating an intelligent world that will reveal endless vistas of opportunities.

As digital technologies develop at an accelerating pace, their reach is rapidly extending into every vertical sector, opening new venues for innovation and growth for organisations across the board. ICT has become the world’s most important and impactful industry. It is at the heart of global economic growth, driving societal progress, revitalising traditional industries, fuelling sustainable economic development, and improving social management and services.

The Middle East stands most to gain from the growth of ICT. The region is undergoing major changes as leaders are spearheading their societies’ transformation into diversified, knowledge-based economies. ICT is at the crux of the success of the region’s vision for the future. Nascent AI technologies in particular will underpin the next leap forward into an intelligent world, where people, vehicles, homes and devices are fully connected, delivering new experiences, insights and capabilities.

At Gitex, Huawei will lay out a blueprint for leading the Middle East into the Digital Intelligence Age.  Visitors to Huawei’s booth will have the opportunity to witness first-hand the emerging power of AI. The new partnerships, products and solutions to be announced at Gitex will include Huawei’s Full-stack, All-scenario AI solutions, the latest AI chipset with machine learning, the new FusionCloud 6.3, a next-generation enterprise-class full-stack intelligent private cloud solution, the CloudLink, which will lead enterprise communication and collaboration into the era of intelligence, and the new FusionServer, which boasts intelligent computing features: an AI enablement platform based on “One Cloud, One Lake and One Platform” architecture to help enterprises accelerate cloud migration and achieve digital transformation.

Based on all AI technologies, Enterprise Intelligence (EI) will bring the intelligent application as cloud services to government security, transportation and more.
 
Huawei will also host a joint conference with a leading operator in the Middle East to demonstrate their newest Wi-Fi solutions, and another joint exhibition with a leading public services government authority. In addition, Huawei will organise a roundtable on Finance Services Industry (FSI) CXO and ecosystem and sign MoUs with leading regional partners, in addition to networking with its partners through an award ceremony to recognise the recipients of the company’s HCIE training programme certificate.

As AI-driven technologies are transforming the world’s digital landscape, Huawei is committed to helping their partners in the Middle East navigate the changing times.
