2019 Annual Report (^21)
In the past, differences between personal devices
and between ecosystems left us with a fragmented
user experience across different scenarios. This will
soon change as we dissolve the boundaries between
products and services, converging user experience
across a vast range of scenarios at home, in the office,
and on the go. Soon all content and services will
travel with users for a completely seamless, holistic
experience. Smart collaboration between software and
devices gives users an intelligent experience anytime,
anywhere.
At the same time, developments in natural interaction
and machine learning will take the service quality of
smart devices to a whole new level. Smart devices will
be able to better identify, understand, and respond
to users’ needs across different scenarios throughout
their day, paving the way for a truly personalized
experience.
Huawei will continue working closely with our
software, service, and hardware ecosystem partners
on systematic integration and innovation to make this
consumer-focused vision a reality. We will provide an
intelligent experience across all scenarios based on
our “1 + 8 + N” strategy, which is centered around
our smartphones, and further empower our ecosystem
partners with HarmonyOS, Huawei Mobile Services
(HMS), the smart assistant Celia, and HiLink.
Digital Platform
Information technology can help organizations
streamline operations and more effectively manage
their physical assets like buildings, factories, production
lines, and utilities. At the same time, the Internet,
AI, and advanced IT technologies like cloud can help
organizations redesign the way they work, giving rise
to new business models. This is the process of digital
transformation.
While digital transformation brings enormous benefits
in terms of cutting costs, increasing agility, and driving
productivity, going digital isn’t easy. There is a whole
host of elements that organizations need to be able
to manage in a more centralized way, whether it’s
incorporating all sorts of new technology, integrating
mountains of data in all forms, or adapting end-to-
end business processes and structures to the changes
these bring.
This is where powerful digital platforms come into
play, combining IT systems and operational methods
that accompany them. These platforms help enterprises
to harness new technologies and innovate with greater
agility in order to keep on top of change and adapt to
new competitive forces.
Together with our ecosystem partners, Huawei provides
innovative technologies, products, and solutions
that help our customers build open, secure, flexible,
and easy-to-use digital platforms. By empowering
data integration, business collaboration, and agile
innovation, our digital platforms pave the way for
successful digital transformation.
