Huawei: Building A Better Connected World At GITEX 2014 Second Day

With cities across the Middle East becoming more intelligent through connected infrastructure, Huawei—a leading global information and communications technology (ICT) solutions provider—announced a full program of activities to help ‘Build a Better Connected World’ at this year’s GITEX Technology Week through an end-to-end portfolio of Smart City solutions and expertise. Huawei’s smart city focus at GITEX follows a recent IDC report that states government spending in the Middle East and Africa is set to top $8billion, a 12 percent increase as more regional governments expand their mobile government and online services.

Such activities focuses on key ICT trends in the Middle East including Software-Defined-Networking (SDN), cloud computing, Bring-Your-Own-Device policies and Big Data storage—all of which are evolving rapidly and consequently demand more flexible, reliable and secure ICT infrastructure. Huawei is also previewing how an expanded portfolio of vertical industry solutions can be used by regional businesses to create a competitive advantage in sectors such as Oil & Gas, Power, Transportation, Government, Hospitality, Education and Healthcare.
