Through HarmonyOS, Huawei Mobile Services (HMS), the smart assistant Celia, and HiLink, Huawei continues empowering its ecosystem partners to provide consumers with a superior intelligent experience across all scenarios.

Digital Platform

Many industries are embracing intelligent upgrade now that digital transformation has reached new levels. From video data and industrial data to personal data and consumption data, all data is coming from more sources and in more forms and is becoming more fragmented. Powerful digital platforms are needed to integrate this data.

New technologies in connectivity, cloud, AI, computing, and industry applications are converging to support comprehensive intelligent connections between people, things, and information at multiple levels. These technologies will help industries expand their traditional boundaries, and enable governments and enterprises to expedite intelligent upgrade. Enterprises will have to adapt their business strategies, organization, processes, marketing, services, manufacturing, and R&D to cope with changes. To do so, enterprises need to synergize cloud, networks, edge, and devices to build an open, powerful digital platform with multi-dimensional perception, all-domain collaboration, accurate judgment, and continuous evolution. With cloud as the foundation and AI at its core, this digital platform helps users accumulate industry know-how, rapidly innovate their core business processes, and quickly iterate to respond to new competition and changes in their business environments.

A digital platform is one of the core engines that drives success in digital transformation. New information technologies can make organizations more efficient through intelligent management of their physical assets like buildings, factories, production lines, and utilities. At the same time, advanced digital technologies in connectivity, cloud, AI, and computing can change the way organizations operate and create new business models. This is the process of digital transformation and intelligent upgrade. An organization’s IT systems and the corresponding operational methods combine to form a digital platform.

Together with its ecosystem partners, Huawei provides innovative technologies, products, and solutions that help its customers build open, secure, flexible, and easy-to-use digital platforms. With its digital platform, Huawei assists customers in crafting their own intelligent solutions, and enables industries to navigate digital transformation and intelligent upgrade.

Caring for Employees

We rely on our dedicated employees to support our sustainable growth. We have a positive, diverse, and open approach to managing people. We fast-track outstanding employees and offer them a stage on which they can maximize their value. We ensure that all kinds of people find the roles that best suit them, maximize their contributions while in their prime, and get the rewards they deserve. We attach equal importance to monetary and non-monetary incentives. We are working to create a warm, relaxed, and efficient workplace.

According to an article on Harvard Business Review, “Huawei’s Culture Is the Key to Its Success”. Huawei emphasizes that the only way to obtain opportunities is through dedication, and the company will provide unlimited opportunities for employees.

Knowing that a dedicated and committed work force makes companies more competitive is not a too difficult concept to understand. The way to promote dedication and make it accepted by its employees – as it is the case in Huawei – is, however, a more difficult nut to crack. Huawei does it in part with the type of incentive performance system the company employs. Huawei is not a public company, and is in fact owned by the employees. Ren Zhengfei’s shares account for only 0.81% of the company’s total, and 121,269 employees hold the rest (according to latest Huawei statistics). As Mr. Ren puts it, he wants everyone to act like the boss.

Maintain a Strong Local Team

In the past 22 years of development in Thailand, Huawei has been holding the firm belief that technologies should be developed for creating greater social values. Through open collaboration with ecosystem partners, we keep the mission of Grow in Thailand, Contribute to Thailand, and maintain a strong local team that is dedicated to creating lasting value for Thai society, enrich home life, and inspire innovation in organizations of all shapes and sizes for sustainable development.

As a responsible local citizen, until now, Huawei has over 2,800 employees and 86% of them are local employees. We have created around 8,500 job opportunities, and in 2020 alone we created more than 1250 job opportunities.

Meanwhile, as Thailand rapidly marches into digital transformation, we launched several digital talent cultivation projects in Thailand, to provide more opportunities for local ICT professionals and students. For example, we joined with the Ministry of Commerce to support the “Gen Z to be CEO project” and develop new generations of entrepreneurs in the digital era and enhance Thailand’s readiness, develop potential of international trade. Under this project, experts from Huawei have provided training for 9 Thai leading universities. In total, this series of training has benefited over 2,000 students. Meanwhile Huawei created a special session “Huawei Talk” for 5 universities, to share our history and business strategy to inspire and encourage Gen Z how the company overcame challenges and become the leading ICT Company as present. The students who pass the test will receive an e-Certificate and we will select a group of outstanding students to joining an internship for 2 month period.

Looking back at Huawei’s footprints in Thailand for the past 22 years, we’ve kept innovating to create value for our customers, to overcome the challenges with Thai society, and to support both economic growth and social progress around the world. We also took this opportunity to further accelerate digital transformation, working together with partners to support broader economic, social, and environmental goals for shared progress and prosperity.

Looking into the future, our mission remains “Grow in Thailand, Contribute to Thailand” as a leading ICT partner as well as social value contributor. Huawei will stand firmly with our local team, Thai people and society to unleash the social value of ICT applications.
