As we enter a fully connected era, digital infrastructure is facilitating economic growth and emerging markets are on the cusp of a major transition towards digital economies. The Global Connectivity Index (GCI) published by Huawei in 2016 reported that for each GCI score point increase a country improved itsinnovation capacity by 2.2%, competitiveness by 2.1%, and productivity by 2.3%. Operators around the world are in a unique position to invest in these emerging markets to capitalize on huge ICT industry potential, untapped demographics, and national ICT strategies.
Huawei is committed to helping operators increase efficiency and drive profitable growth by promoting the sustainable development of emerging markets.William Xu, Executive Director of Board and Chief Strategy Marketing Officer, Huawei, explained: "We work hand-in-hand with operators to help them identifyvalued customers, develop valued businesses, and build valued networks. We enable operators to combine industry policy with theutilization of existing network resources, andintegratetechnological and business innovation. Our goal is to help operators drive new revenue streams and a positive business cycle of service development and network construction."
Huawei has analyzed the current landscape in emerging markets to formulate its strategic approach from four angles: user+, family+, asset+, and efficiency+. Rapid deployment of home broadband and indoor digitalization will improve coverage and the user experience. Existing network assets are leveraged to maximize network value and spectrum efficiency, improve O&M, and serve every economic level. Interconnecting all users promotes the development of economy, society, and humanity.
"By 2025, we will see 2 billion more people with mobile connections, and another 500 million broadband homes. Our commitment has always been to enable world’s operatorsto build roads to new growth," Mr. Xu emphasized. "Huawei continues to drive its social responsibility to help emerging markets grow by at least 1 GCI point while guaranteeing coverage in times of major world events or natural disasters."
