With a proven track record, Huawei continues to outdo itself by clinching the Telecom Equipment Vendor of the Year award.

“Huawei APAC business continued its momentum from its large scale 4G LTE network deployments across the region, specifically in China. The business growth was also supported by its several new multi-year network infrastructure projects in Indonesia, India, Philippines and Thailand.

During the past year, Huawei collaborated with industry partners to innovate and drive the technological leadership. Its comprehensive and competitive product portfolio helped multiple leading operators smoothly evolve their networks and maximize the network efficiency, meeting the changing needs of their customers,” said Avinash Sachdeva, Senior Industry Analyst, Telecoms, Digital Transformation Practice, APAC Frost & Sullivan.

“We are honoured to receive this prestigious award, which is a testament of our ability to incessantly reinvent to remain relevant and at the forefront of technology in this competitive and rapidly growing ICT space. This award is a timely reminder for us to continue our efforts in serving our customers’ best interests,” said Lim Chee Siong, CMO of Huawei Southern Pacific Region.

The impact of innovative ICT technologies are deepening and significant changes are taking place in customers' business models, as well as in the industry ecosystem. In response to customers' business demands, Huawei have focused on ICT infrastructure and fully collaborated and jointly innovated with partners on technology, hardware, software, services, and go-to-market strategies. Through these relentless efforts, Huawei were able to provide customers with innovative, differentiated, and leading products and solutions that helped them achieve business successes.

Huawei places emphasis in open, collaborative and win-win synergies in the ecosystem to deliver connectivity to all corners of the world. 

“All of us here tonight are most probably well connected. However, there are many populations and places in the Asia Pacific still remain unconnected. I urge all industry players to work together to connect the unconnected. Collectively, we can build a better connected world,” added Lim.
