[Shanghai, China, September 20, 2023] During HUAWEI CONNECT 2023, Huawei held the Global Manufacturing and Large Enterprise Summit themed Bring Intelligence into Manufacturing. At the event, Huawei released a series of solutions and consulting services, which integrate Huawei's reference architecture for the intelligent transformation of industries into the processes and business scenarios of manufacturers and other large enterprises. The summit brought together over 700 enterprise customers, technical experts, partners, and representatives of industry alliances to discuss how to use AI and other digital technologies to accelerate the intelligent transformation of the manufacturing industry.
As global efforts are being made to promote the in-depth integration of digital and real economies, digital technologies such as cloud computing, big data, the industrial Internet, and AI are becoming increasingly pervasive. "Huawei has been innovating in products and solutions, accumulating experience and practices as a manufacturing enterprise, and keeping to the concept of collaboration for shared success," said Liu Chao, CEO of Huawei's Manufacturing and Large Enterprises BU. "We are working with manufacturing and large enterprise customers to bring intelligent transformation to the next level, from intelligent ICT infrastructure, to intelligent business scenarios including R&D, production, supply, and sales, and now to intelligent products."
Liu Chao, CEO of Huawei's Manufacturing and Large Enterprises BU, delivering a speechWang Zhiya, COO of Huawei's Manufacturing and Large Enterprises BU, introduced Huawei' intelligent solutions and consulting services using examples of the company's own practices in different business scenarios.
? Huawei's R&D cloud solution helps the company double R&D service volumes and improve operational efficiency by over 50% while cutting down on the actual R&D resources needed by 40%. The solution also enhances application security and enables minute-level software vulnerability detection.
? For production, Huawei has developed an upgraded Intelligent Factory 2.0 solution. The solution uses a one cloud, one network, one platform, and N applications architecture and incorporates intelligent applications to deliver full-stack AI, including intelligent computing, Kunpeng, and Huawei Cloud Pangu models. It improves the training and deployment of AI algorithms in certain scenarios like factory quality inspection and production scheduling, helping factories advance intelligence.
? Huawei also proposed the full-stack industrial AI platform solution. The open architecture of this solution allows users to integrate Huawei's computing power, algorithms, and intelligent platform into their products. This facilitates intelligent product innovation in automotive, software, home appliance, and many other industries.
At the summit, Tao Jingwen, CIO of Huawei, spoke as a special guest. "Demands for ensured business continuity drive enterprises to embark on a new journey of digital, intelligent innovation," said Tao in his speech titled Digital Platform Accelerates Intelligent Enterprise Upgrades. "We need to do things right the first time and avoid repeated investment. This requires modernized applications to accelerate services." Tao also explained how AI foundation models can be used to drive real-time intelligence, and how innovation in system engineering is important to building first-class products.
