Cai Yinghua releases industry digital transformation methodology

In his keynote speech titled "Intelligent Evolution and a Win-Win Ecological Future", Cai Yinghua, President of Huawei Enterprise BG China, said that the intelligent era has arrived. While artificial intelligence has become a key technology for the digital transformation of the industry, it has also driven changes in the ICT ecosystem. In order to make the ecosystem better adapt to changes, Huawei has done one "big thing" and four "small things" in terms of intelligent evolution.

Huawei has released the industry digital transformation methodology. Cai Yinghua said that in the past few years, Huawei has invested more than 10 billion yuan in the digital transformation of its own organizational structure and business support platform, and has helped more than 1,000 customers in more than 10 industries to achieve industry digital transformation. The above practices have become the basis of the "industry digital transformation methodology". While other companies are still crossing the river by feeling the stones, Huawei has summarized the practices and raised them to the level of methodology.

Cai Yinghua summarized the industry digital transformation methodology as "1 strategy, 2 guarantee conditions, 3 core principles, and 4 key actions", but compared with the industry digital transformation methodology model and tools, he attaches more importance to the spiritual essence of the methodology. In this regard, Cai Yinghua said, "Only by aggregating different types of ecological partners such as investment and financing, consulting services, application development, integration services, and operation services can we form a corps with the ability to serve digital transformation. And only by collective initiative and intelligent response can we achieve intelligent evolution."

At the same time, Cai Yinghua also used the "four small things" of talent acquisition, solutions, delivery services, and partner cooperation to see the big picture and allow the ecosystem to better adapt to changes.

In terms of talent acquisition , Huawei has used the Huawei Ecological University as a platform to work with more than 300 universities to build a full-cycle talent supply chain for the domestic ICT industry. Based on this, it has formulated a "Creative Intelligence Plan" to cultivate AI talents on a large scale in the next two years to "generate blood" for the ecosystem;

In terms of solutions, we have established a "Solution Partner Program" to provide partners with the "three pillars": digital platform, OpenLab, and Marketplace, providing full-process business support from joint solution development, verification, release, listing to sales;

In terms of service delivery, Huawei has launched the "Service Partner Capability Improvement Plan". Huawei focuses on top-level design, project management, integration verification, and full-stack cloud operations. It also continues to invest in the cultivation of service partners' ICT infrastructure service capabilities and scenario-based service capabilities, forming a consortium with complementary advantages for customers and creating a high-quality service experience.

In terms of partner cooperation, the "Enterprise e+" platform provides a unified entrance for all types of partners, and uses digital technologies such as AI to significantly shorten the partner registration, certification, and incentive processes, thereby improving the efficiency of ecological cooperation.

Su Baohua releases smart park solution

As a typical example of the industry digital transformation methodology and a concentrated reflection of Huawei's industry solution capabilities, Huawei also released the Smart Park Solution at the conference. The solution is divided into general parks and industry parks. General parks include seven scenarios: intelligent operation center, comprehensive security, convenient access, asset management, energy efficiency management, facility management, and environmental space, aiming to reshape park operations; the first batch of industry parks released real estate parks, government parks, smart campuses, and chemical parks to help industry customers with digital transformation.

Su Baohua, President of Huawei Enterprise BG Smart Park Business Unit, said at the launch ceremony that Huawei uses its own park as a test field and its own parachute to launch mature smart park solutions to the market. At the launch conference, Huawei showed the guests a real smart park and demonstrated scenes such as the intelligent operation center, asset management, and fire linkage, which reflected the visibility of park management status, controllable business, and manageable events.

Su Baohua said that partners are crucial to smart parks. In the next three years, Huawei's core partners for smart parks will increase 20 times to 3,000, and they will work together to bring the digital world into every park and make intelligence within reach.

It is worth mentioning that an important innovation of this conference exhibition is that Huawei has transformed the venue of the conference, the Fuzhou Straits International Convention and Exhibition Center, into a "smart island", with ONE as the creative idea, O-On-line full connection, N- No-boundaries no boundaries, and E-Experience full experience, to create a real online immersive smart experience. The "smart island" presents experience points including 20 smart application scenarios with the spatial levels of island, pavilion, and hall, and connects the island, pavilion, and hall through technologies such as 5G, the Internet of Things, and Huawei Cloud, to achieve a borderless smart experience and display the various elements required for smart evolution in multiple dimensions. All smart experience points are real online businesses created by Huawei and its partners in cooperation with local governments and enterprises within 30 days.

Zheng Yelai introduces Huawei Cloud

Whether it is one "big thing", four "small things", or the digital transformation methodology of the industry, as well as the implementation of smart park solutions, Huawei Cloud is indispensable. Huawei Cloud is the foundation of the digital platform. It is not only a concentrated expression of intelligent technology, but also greatly promotes the evolution of intelligence. It is crucial to the success of the digital transformation of the industry. In this regard, Zheng Yelai, Vice President of Huawei and President of Cloud BU, delivered a keynote speech entitled "+ Intelligence, See the Future and Build Inclusive AI" at this conference, sharing Huawei Cloud's insights into the AI ​​industry and Huawei Cloud's exploration and practice. The current decline in AI enthusiasm is, on the one hand, a decline in hype and speculation, and on the other hand, the beginning of the spring of AI entering the industry application.

Huawei Cloud EI helps customers and partners identify AI large-scale application scenarios, and has achieved efficiency improvement, professional experience inheritance, and breakthroughs in many industries. At the same time, Huawei Cloud released AI Market. As a developer ecosystem community built on the Huawei Cloud ModelArts one-stop AI development platform, Huawei Cloud AI Market can provide AI models, API transactions, data, competition cases and other content sharing functions, providing universities, enterprises and developers with a safe and open sharing and trading environment, effectively connecting all participants in the AI ​​development ecosystem, and will help developers and partners accelerate the implementation of AI applications in enterprises and quickly form AI solutions. In the future, it can help developers and partners realize commercial realization. At the same time, Huawei Cloud will invest in special incentives to encourage the sharing of AI models.
