These collaborations emphasize Huawei’s dedication to driving innovation across Qatar’s major economic sectors. During the summit, the company signed Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with top Qatari organizations, focusing on advancing cloud infrastructure, ICT talent development, and technological innovation.
The event, which attracted over 20,000 attendees, including investors and industry leaders, provided Huawei with the perfect platform to underline its commitment to nurturing Qatar’s digital ecosystem through strategic collaborations designed to address sector-specific challenges. Huawei Cloud, a pioneer in AI technology, continues to lead the way in industry intelligence, offering a full range of AI capabilities, from infrastructure and computing power to advanced Pangu Large Models.
