Huawei confirms its largest ever presence at GITEX Technology Week 2020

During this year’s GITEX Technology Week 2020, Huawei is collaborating with partners from around the world to showcase how governments and organizations in the Middle East can create new value through synergy across five tech domains. As this year’s 5G Innovation Partner, Huawei has strengthened its commitment to the region’s technology ecosystem by confirming its largest ever GITEX Technology Week presence at the 40th anniversary edition of the event.

As 5G has been rolled out at scale in the region and worldwide, Huawei believes that connectivity, cloud, AI, computing, and industry applications are now truly coming together to create unprecedented opportunities for society. Huawei is thus focusing on applying ICT technologies to more industries through scenario-specific solutions that help enterprises to enhance their business, and governments to achieve strategic goals related to domestic productivity and improving overall governance.  

Charles Yang, President of Huawei Middle East, notes: “This year’s GITEX Technology Week comes at a time when the true value of ICT has become increasingly clear. Keeping people, businesses, and communities connected even when physically apart is more essential than ever. Through open collaboration, the ICT sector can accelerate the development of the digital economy, in turn contributing to sustainable growth and supporting national transformation agendas in a post-pandemic world.”

GITEX visitors will not only see a demonstration of new technologies, but current and future-oriented applications that Huawei has developed with its global partners for customers in government, energy, transportation, finance, and more. Huawei’s regional leadership team is also connecting with attendees through participation in many of the individual GITEX conference tracks. During these sessions, the company will share best practices in helping to build smart enterprises, campuses, and cities, leveraging its depth of industry know-how and experience in more than 170 countries worldwide.

In addition, Huawei will host a “Igniting Innovation Through Education” virtual summit dedicated to the unique requirements of today’s education sector, and what the ICT community can do to bolster digital learning, support new academic models, and promote ICT innovation in line with countries’ national development visions.

Huawei will also host its sixth 5G Ecosystem Conference bringing together vertical industries, 5G ecosystem partners, and 5G operators. Recognizing the COVID-19 outbreak challenges, 5G is essential for societal development and business continuity during the pandemic, as well as for economic recovery post the pandemic. Participants will share insights on the 5G network values, and explore 5G applications both for consumer and industry, to harvest more remarkable achievements in business and social values.

GITEX visitors and virtual guests will also be able to attend the Huawei Middle East Data Center Network Online Summit 2020. It will bring together global and regional experts to address the challenges data center networks are facing today, such as 10-fold surges in data volumes, computing power loss, and others, while helping enterprises to mine intelligence from data, accelerate digital transformation, and promote the development of the digital economy.

Under the slogan of ‘New Value Together’, Huawei’s GITEX exhibition is proudly supported by Enterprise Systems, Gulf Applications (GAPP), Redington, Al Rostamani Communications, Foresight Technology (4Sight), SecureTech and Reviei Technologies.
