LONDON, Feb. 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- At its Pre-MWC Analyst and Media Briefing held today in London, Huawei unveiled its vision for the ICT industry - Open ROADS to a Better Connected World - and announced a line-up of innovative new ICT products and initiatives. As an industry-leading strategic partner for telecom operators, Huawei aims to help its customers thrive in a fully digitized world through the implementation of comprehensive ICT solutions towards the development of an open and healthy industry ecosystem.
"The rapid development of the mobile Internet has significantly changed user behaviors creating a new pattern of traffic consumption featuring five fundamental characteristics: Real-time, On-demand, All-online, DIY, and Social; or ROADS in short," said Mr. Ryan Ding, Executive Director of the Board and President of Products & Solutions, Huawei. "This new trend is driving transformations across industries, and the ICT sector, as an engine of the advancement and modernization of other industries, must pioneer the process. Specifically, this will involve the sector shifting away from its traditional self-centric 'network-operation-experience' mindset and prioritizing user experience for a new strategic approach, 'experience-operation-network', in order to effectively address the challenges posed by the mobile Internet."
During the briefing, Huawei introduced several new product offerings and initiatives that reinforce its commitment to embracing an open digital ecosystem, enabling ICT transformation, and evolving ultra-mobile broadband in the digital era. Key announcements included:
With the challenges posed by the surge of data traffic coming from video streaming, the Internet of Things, and the variety of digital content now available to end-users, carriers, in order to offer the ROADS user experience, not only need to construct a future-oriented infrastructure that supports ultra-mobile broadband, but also enable ICT transformation driven by an Internet-based architecture. They also must strive towards creating a healthy and open industry ecosystem where all participants in the value chain collaborate and contribute. As an active player in the industry's overall advancement, Huawei continuously engages in partnerships with world-leading operators, industry organizations, and other third-party partners to promote the development, standardization and commercialization of cutting-edge information and communications technologies.
Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2015 will be held in Barcelona from March 2 to 5. Huawei will showcase its latest products and solutions at Fira Gran Via Hall 1 and Hall 3. For more information, please visit: http://www.huawei.com/minisite/mwc2015/preview/en/index.html.
