38 Huawei Investment & Holding Co., Ltd.
EducationHuawei is driving the digital transformation of
elementary education, higher education, vocational
education, and scientific research institutes. In
education, we have been transforming from deploying
campus networks to digitizing entire campuses and
implementing new models for higher education like
cloud-based universities. Our goal is to cultivate
innovative ICT talent, promote broader and more
efficient sharing of education resources, and build
safer campuses.In elementary education, we have built wired and
wireless networks in multiple countries and regions,
such as Spain, the UK, and Ethiopia, in order to
promote fair access to education. China is currently
striving to build broadband networks in every school,
bring quality resources to every class, enable every
student to access education online, and build a public
service platform for education resources and education
management. We have helped expand the adoption
of ICT technology in China’s education industry to
promote the sharing of education resources.In higher education, we use intelligent technologies
to build intelligent campuses and cultivate innovative
talent. For example, China’s Soochow University is
now using the university data platform and 5G- and
VR-powered 360° immersive smart classrooms after
moving to the cloud. This has allowed the university
to become a global pioneer implementing new models
that combine online and offline study.In scientific research, we have helped countries such
as Brazil, Thailand, Pakistan, and Italy build national
research and education networks, which make it easier
to acquire research resources than ever before.By the end of 2019, Huawei had served more than
2,500 universities and research institutes in more than
70 countries and regions.A thriving enterprise ecosystem and global
