"As the Covid-19 pandemic passes, Huawei is confident that Thailand has the capability to be the regional digital hub. We are willing to support and collaborate with the Thai government to revive Thailand's economy and society. It is also our commitment to capture the full capacities of ICT innovations including 5G ecosystem, AI, Big Data, and Cloud Service in order to improve the quality of life, as well as to enhance the capabilities of both public and private sectors. The collaboration will help us accelerate the growth of Thai economy and society and overcome any challenges ahead of us,” said Deng.
Among Huawei’s plans for Thailand is a 5G Ecosystem Innovation Centre to cultivate ICT talents in the local digital industry including SMEs, startups and other organisations via knowledge-sharing and skills-transfer led by global experts and digital scientist from Huawei Technologies headquarters.
