  • GITEX GLOBAL 2024: Huawei Launches Advanced Digital and Intelligent Solutions

    GITEX GLOBAL 2024: Huawei Launches Advanced Digital and Intelligent Solutions

    Huawei is making waves at GITEX GLOBAL 2024, one of the world’s largest and most influential technology exhibitions, held at the Dubai World Trade Centre. As a Diamond Sponsor, Huawei is showcasing a range of cutting-edge solutions and flagship products aimed at accelerating industrial digitalization and intelligent transformation. Under the theme “Accelerate Industrial Digitalization and Intelligence,” Huawei is presenting joint solutions with partners across a variety of industries, including public utilities, transportation, finance, electric power, oil and gas, mining, retail, education, and healthcare. The goal of these solutions is to help businesses across these sectors successfully navigate and enhance their digital transformation efforts.

    During the Industrial Digital and Intelligent Transformation Summit at GITEX 2024, Li Peng, Corporate Senior Vice President and President of ICT Sales & Service at Huawei, delivered the opening remarks, emphasizing the company’s focus on leveraging its strengths to support industrial transformation. “We’re combining our strengths in networking, storage, computing, cloud, and energy,” Li said, highlighting the company’s commitment to building new digital and intelligent infrastructure.

    Li Peng also discussed how Huawei is implementing the intelligent transformation reference architecture it introduced last year. This architecture has already been used to deliver solutions across industries like government, finance, electric power, transportation, manufacturing, oil and gas, and mining. “We have summarized over 100 case studies that different industry customers can use to accelerate their digital and intelligent transformation,” said Li.

    The success of these solutions, according to Li, is rooted in Huawei’s strong partnerships. The company has created an open, mutually beneficial ecosystem by collaborating with local solution partners. Through initiatives such as the establishment of 14 OpenLabs around the globe, Huawei supports joint innovation with partners. In the UAE, Huawei has developed over 20 industry-specific solutions by working with more than 30 local partners. Li emphasized the importance of developing local talent and building a sustainable digital ecosystem to drive long-term success.

    Another keynote speaker at the summit of Gitex Global 20204, Leo Chen, Corporate Senior Vice President and President of Enterprise Sales at Huawei, emphasized the transformative impact of next-generation technologies like AI and 5G-A on global industries. According to Chen, these technologies are key drivers of the fourth industrial revolution, set to bring a dramatic leap in productivity.

    However, this transformation also comes with its share of challenges. Issues related to infrastructure, industrial applications, and talent ecosystems need to be addressed to fully realize the potential of digital and intelligent transformation. Huawei aims to tackle these challenges head-on by providing industries with AI-ready ICT infrastructure built on its full-stack capabilities in connectivity, storage, computing, and cloud.

    Huawei is also helping industries overcome their specific challenges by applying advanced technologies to resolve business pain points. To further support industries in their transformation, Huawei released the “Amplifying Industrial Digitalization & Intelligence Practice” white paper, which includes more than 100 success stories from over 20 industries. This paper offers a roadmap for industries looking to adopt advanced technologies and improve their business operations.

    In addition, Huawei has collaborated with IDC to develop the Global Digital Index (GDI), a new set of evaluation indicators designed to help enterprises measure and track their digital transformation progress. This comprehensive initiative reflects Huawei’s dedication to leading industrial digital and intelligent transformation.

    David Shi, Vice President of ICT Marketing and Solution Sales at Huawei, emphasized the importance of solid ICT infrastructure for enterprises during his keynote speech. According to Shi, building the right foundation is critical for organizations to succeed in the digital and intelligent era. He identified two key areas of focus: accelerating the popularization of ICT infrastructure and accelerating monetization.

    To make ICT infrastructure more accessible and adaptable to various industries, Huawei has established four guiding principles: easy integration, access, use, and evolution. These principles simplify the process for industries to adopt and utilize advanced ICT infrastructure. From campuses to wide-area networks (WANs) and data centers, Huawei’s solutions are designed to integrate smoothly into existing business operations and evolve alongside changing business needs.

    Additionally, Huawei’s push to accelerate monetization focuses on creating value through innovation, integrating technologies, and building a vibrant partner ecosystem. By helping businesses speed up their digital and intelligent transformation, Huawei enables them to unlock new revenue streams and create long-term value.

    At GITEX GLOBAL 2024, Huawei, along with its partners, unveiled a range of industry-specific solutions designed to help businesses across sectors accelerate their digital transformation. Some of the key solutions launched include:

    • National Government Cloud Solution: Designed to support the secure and efficient management of government data.
    • ICT Talent Cultivation Solution: Aimed at developing digital skills and preparing the workforce for future industry demands.
    • Medical Technology Digitalization Solution 2.0: Enhancing the efficiency of healthcare services through advanced digital technologies.
    • Digital CORE Solution: Supporting businesses in building intelligent operational cores.
    • Smart Retail Solution: Helping retailers leverage AI and data analytics to enhance customer experiences.
    • One-Cloud, One-Network, Multi-Hub Solution: Designed to enable seamless multi-cloud operations.
    • Transportation Operations Coordination Center-Advanced (TOCC-A) Solution: Streamlining transportation management and coordination.
    • Intelligent Distribution Solution: Improving distribution processes with intelligent automation.
    • Unstaffed Open-Pit Mine Solution: Increasing the safety and efficiency of mining operations through automation and AI.
    • Intelligent Oil & Gas Field Solution: Helping oil and gas companies optimize production and reduce operational costs.

    These solutions are designed to provide businesses with step-by-step guidance and tools to succeed in the intelligent era.

    A significant aspect of Huawei’s strategy is its collaboration with industry partners. Huawei’s “SHAPE” framework outlines its approach to supporting partners in five areas: sustaining leadership, advancing joint innovation, promoting capability development, enhancing the partner cooperation experience, and creating growth opportunities.

    Ernest Zhang, President of Global Partner and Commercial & Distribution for Enterprise Sales at Huawei, underscored the company’s focus on fostering a customer-centric culture built on integrity and shared benefits. Huawei is dedicated to collaborating with partners to create a healthy business environment and help customers achieve their digital transformation goals.

    In North America, Huawei works with partners to create tailored solutions that enhance productivity and foster intelligent business growth. In the small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) market, Huawei has implemented a partner-led strategy, offering solutions designed to meet the specific needs of smaller businesses.

    Huawei’s exhibition at GITEX GLOBAL 2024 spans over 1,400 square meters and features a wide array of digital and intelligent transformation solutions. Visitors can explore Huawei’s reference architecture for intelligent transformation and see real-world applications of its innovative solutions.

    With Huawei leading the way, industries are poised to embrace the digital future and transform how they operate. For more information about Huawei’s participation in GITEX GLOBAL 2024, visit their official event page at Huawei GITEX.

  • HOMESOY 3.0 Lancar “STOP THAT DOT” Cegah Kanser Payudara

    HOMESOY 3.0 Lancar “STOP THAT DOT” Cegah Kanser Payudara

    HOMESOY, jenama susu soya terkenal di bawah naungan Ace Canning Corporation Sdn Bhd, telah melancarkan kempen kesedaran baharu, HOMESOY 3.0 “STOP THAT DOT”, bagi meningkatkan kesedaran mengenai kanser payudara dan menggalakkan pengesanan awal di kalangan wanita Malaysia. Pelancaran kempen ini bukan hanya menekankan kebaikan kacang soya dalam pemakanan, tetapi juga bertujuan memperkasakan wanita untuk bertindak lebih awal dalam mencegah kanser payudara.

    Kempen ini dilancarkan dengan mesej simbolik melalui Pink Ball “STOP THAT DOT” yang menggambarkan sel kanser payudara. Seperti sel kanser yang hanya sebesar titik pada awal pengesanan, ia boleh menjadi ancaman besar sekiranya tidak dikesan dan diatasi segera. HOMESOY menyeru semua wanita untuk menjalani saringan awal, kerana dengan pengesanan awal, peluang untuk pulih dari kanser payudara meningkat secara drastik.

    Kempen ini turut mempersembahkan sebuah filem yang menyentuh perasaan dan mengandungi kisah para ‘survivor’ kanser payudara, di samping maklumat mengenai inisiatif melalui laman mikro kempen. Melalui laman mikro ini, pengguna dapat menyokong kempen STOP THAT DOT dengan hanya satu klik, sekaligus menyumbang kepada usaha mempromosikan pengesanan awal kanser payudara.

    Dedikasi Terhadap Pengesanan Awal dan Sokongan kepada Wanita

    Pada majlis pelancaran yang diadakan di Le Meridien, Petaling Jaya, Pengarah Pemasaran Ace Canning Corporation Sdn Bhd, Chang Wan Ping menekankan komitmen HOMESOY dalam memperjuangkan kesihatan wanita. “Kanser payudara bukan hanya perjuangan individu, tetapi melibatkan keluarga dan masyarakat. Melalui kempen STOP THAT DOT, kami ingin memberi peringatan bahawa pengesanan awal merupakan kunci penting dalam memerangi kanser payudara.”

    Wan Ping juga berkongsi bagaimana HOMESOY 3.0 bukan sahaja susu soya yang enak tetapi juga menyumbang kepada kesihatan wanita. Dengan kerjasama bersama Cancer Research Malaysia (CRMY), HOMESOY turut berusaha untuk membanteras salah faham mengenai hubungan antara pengambilan soya dan kanser payudara. Wan Ping menambah, “Kami ingin menyediakan maklumat yang tepat mengenai pemakanan soya, dan memperkasakan wanita untuk membuat keputusan yang tepat dalam mencegah risiko kanser payudara.”

    Kisah Inspirasi dari Para ‘Survivor’

    Salah satu tarikan utama dalam kempen ini adalah kisah enam wanita Malaysia yang berjaya melawan kanser payudara. Kisah-kisah ini dipersembahkan melalui filem kempen yang dihasilkan oleh HOMESOY dengan kerjasama Asterisk Advisory. Setiap daripada mereka berkongsi perjalanan mereka dalam mengharungi cabaran, memberikan inspirasi kepada wanita lain untuk tidak berputus asa.

    stop that dot

    Antara kisah yang diketengahkan adalah Tan Chieu Mei, yang menyentuh hati penonton dengan ceritanya tentang bagaimana pengesanan awal telah menyelamatkan nyawanya. “Saya sangat bersyukur kerana menjalani saringan awal yang membolehkan saya bertindak cepat. Ia memberi peluang kepada saya untuk melawan kanser ini,” kata Chieu Mei, yang menggesa setiap wanita untuk mengambil serius soal pengesanan awal.

    Manfaat Soya dalam Mencegah Kanser Payudara

    Dalam kempen ini, HOMESOY turut berkongsi maklumat penting mengenai manfaat soya dalam pemakanan. Menurut Profesor Dr. Cheong Sok Ching dari CRMY, kajian menunjukkan bahawa isoflavon soya boleh memberikan kesan perlindungan terhadap kanser payudara. “Soya mengandungi isoflavon, sejenis fitoestrogen, yang mampu bersaing dengan estrogen semula jadi dan berpotensi mengurangkan risiko kanser payudara,” jelasnya.

    HOMESOY terus memperkukuh usaha ini melalui sumbangan tahunan sebanyak RM50,000 kepada CRMY untuk menyokong penyelidikan mereka mengenai kanser payudara. Soo Sek Yow, Ketua Unit Pemakanan Soya Ace Canning, turut menjelaskan bahawa HOMESOY 3.0 dirumuskan dengan kandungan protein soya yang lebih tinggi, yang menyokong manfaat kesihatan wanita secara menyeluruh.

    Kerjasama untuk Peningkatan Kesedaran

    Bagi memaksimumkan impak kempen ini, HOMESOY bekerjasama dengan lebih daripada 20 hospital swasta untuk menawarkan pek percuma HOMESOY 3.0 kepada setiap individu yang menjalani saringan payudara sepanjang kempen. Kempen ini akan berlangsung dari 7 Oktober hingga akhir bulan, dengan sokongan daripada pelbagai rakan kongsi untuk menyebarkan mesej kesihatan ini kepada lebih ramai wanita di seluruh negara.

    HOMESOY menyeru seluruh rakyat Malaysia untuk menyertai gerakan STOP THAT DOT dengan memberi sokongan kepada orang tersayang, berkongsi mesej kesedaran, dan memastikan wanita menjalani saringan awal. Setiap tindakan kecil, termasuk menjalani ujian mamogram, boleh menyelamatkan nyawa.

    Maklumat lanjut mengenai kempen ini boleh didapati di laman mikro STOP THAT DOT di http://www.stopthatdot.homesoy.my, serta maklumat lanjut mengenai produk HOMESOY di http://www.homesoy.my.

    Empowering the Future: Asia-Pacific Digital Talent Summit 2024 co-hosted by Huawei

    The 2024 Asia-Pacific Digital Talent Summit successfully brought together government leaders including Secretary-General of ASEAN, Minister of Ministry of Post and Telecommunications of the Kingdom of Cambodia, Permanent Secretary of Ministry of Education of Brunei Darussalam, industry experts, professionals from academy and 130+ young talents from 18 countries across the region to foster collaboration, innovation, and digital growth for a connected, digital and intelligent future. 

    Held in Nanning, this event provided a crucial platform to discuss the future of digital talent development in the rapidly evolving regional digital economy.

    In his welcome speech, H.E. Dr. Kao Kim Hourn, Secretary-General of ASEAN, emphasized the vital role of digital talent in driving the region’s growth and innovation, ensuring our region remains competitive in the global economy. “The collaboration between Huawei and the ASEAN Foundation, which has made this event possible, exemplifies the profound impact of public-private partnerships in enhancing digital skills among our youths across the Asia-Pacific region.

    This program offers more than 130 exceptional young talents an enriching one-week tour of China, where they will engage in a journey of learning and cultural exchange. As they embark on this exciting experience, I am confident they will make meaningful contributions to unlocking the region’s digital potential, driving forward innovation, and steering us toward a sustainable and inclusive digital future.

    In response, ASEAN is actively developing policies to facilitate digital talent mobility among its member states, enable mutual recognition of qualifications, and encourage collaboration on talent development. ASEAN countries also have much to gain from China’s approach to enhancing digital skills among its youth. China’s integration of digital education into school curricula, with a focus on subjects like coding and AI, serves as a model.

    Key initiatives such as the New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan and collaborations with tech giants like Huawei—providing training and internships—are central to this endeavor.”

    In line with this vision, Mr. Simon Lin, President of Huawei Asia-Pacific, said “At Huawei, our digital talent program in the Asia-Pacific region is built on three key pillars: Partnership, Commitment, and Youth Empowerment.

    These principles have driven us to develop over 200,000 digital talents through initiatives like Huawei ICT Academy in more than 310 universities, Tech4City competition, and this Digital Talent Summit. We are committed to fostering future leaders of the Asia-Pacific digital economy and, together with our partners, we will continue building a bigger stage for young talent to thrive with technology.”

    Datuk Dr. Habibah Abdul Rahim, Director of the Southeast Asian Ministers of Education Organization Secretariat and H.E. Ambassador M.I. Derry Aman, Chair of the ASEAN Foundation Board of Trustees, also shared their valuable perspectives on the importance of shaping a brighter digital future in ASEAN countries. “Investing in youth is key to unlocking the digital potential of not only ASEAN and the Asia-Pacific region but also the world”, as said by Ambassador Derry.
