An Information and Communication Technology company, Huawei, says it is poised to boost the ICT market in Nigeria.
The Chief Executive Officer, Huawei Enterprise Nigeria, Tank Li, said on Thursday in a statement that the company would achieve this through intensified partners’ relationship.
Li said that the world had reached an age of rapid advancements in ICT innovation solutions, with technologies such as 5th Generation network, Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, and cloud computing becoming the new reality.
He said that Nigeria being the largest ICT market in Africa would benefit from partnership with Huawei.
According to him, in order to deepen its channel partners’ relationship and boost Nigeria’s ICT market, the company organised the ‘Huawei Nigeria Eco-Connect 2019’.
He said, “As a leading global provider of ICT infrastructure, Huawei is committed to helping enterprise organisations expand the boundaries of their businesses.
”Huawei is committed to help them find routes to new growth, to explore innovative technological solutions and build new business opportunities,” he said.
Li said that Huawei would deepen its investment in Nigeria to ensure the continuous growth of ICT in the country.
He said that the company’s channel partners in Nigeria had increased, showing the great confidence that Huawei put in the country.
He added, “Nigeria is still the biggest economic entity in the African continent, and Huawei aims to enhance its relationship with its partners to further develop the Nigerian market.
“In our enterprise business, our core value is really to build an ecosystem with our partners together.
“In 2019, we will raise our connection with the partners ecosystem and we will call it ‘Huawei Insight’; that means we will enlarge our collaboration with all the partners. Our partners are the most important platform.
According to him, Huawei is willing and ready to share the profit with its local partners for a sustainable ecosystem, where all partners can grow together.
Li said creating value for customers was the only way for Huawei to guarantee its value, as the company’s success depended on the success of the customers.
The Vice President, Huawei Cloud Business Unit, Mr Edward Deng, announced the availability of ‘Huawei Cloud’ in Nigeria, offering commercial services.
Deng described Africa as one of the most diverse and promising emerging markets globally, with tremendous potential.
He said cloud services were expected to unleash the latent capacity and drive the growth in the country.
He said, “We are looking forward to Huawei Cloud’s innovative technologies and services, such as cloud computing and artificial intelligence.
Deng said, “These will assist African and, by extension, Nigerian governments, carriers and enterprises in a variety of industries such as finance, energy, agriculture, to leapfrog to a fully-connected, intelligent era.
“Looking to the future, Huawei promises to continue to work with its partners to enable the digital transformation of all industries.
“Huawei’s big mission is to bring digital to every person, home and organisation for a fully connected, intelligent world.”
