SINGAPORE, July 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Huawei Cloud Singapore Summit 2025, themed “Accelerate Intelligence, Ignite Smarter Future,” brought together over 500 representatives from government, business, and technology sectors today. Attendees explored how the transition from basic cloud adoption to comprehensive intelligence can dramatically boost enterprise productivity, enabling businesses to thrive in today’s complex and dynamic landscape.
In an era of increasing uncertainty, digitalization remains the most effective strategy to address challenges. Sunny Shang, President of Huawei Cloud Asia Pacific, highlighted Singapore’s pivotal role as a global innovation hub, particularly in the intelligent era. Singapore hosts Huawei Cloud’s unique five local Available Zones (AZ) deployment, ensuring unparalleled service continuity. As partners embark on their intelligence and transformation journey, Huawei serves as a bridge, facilitating the exchange of innovative solutions and industry expertise between Singapore and the rest of the world.
Maxi Wang, CEO of Huawei International, emphasized, “In this era of intelligence, Singapore has consistently valued practical innovation – the kind that enhances productivity, streamlines operations, and empowers individual growth. At Huawei, we share this vision. We’re here to bring global best practices to help Singaporean enterprises scale, modernize, and break boundaries with our cloud solutions. We’re equally committed to people development. We’ll continue collaborating with industry and higher education partners to equip the local workforce with globally competitive skills, ensuring they remain relevant in a rapidly evolving world that spans both East and West.”
Deepening Technology Roots in Industry Practices
Over the years, Huawei Cloud’s engineers and PhDs have been working directly at customer sites, testing devices in coal mines, monitoring blast furnace parameters in steel mills, and observing outpatient diagnosis and treatment processes in hospitals. This hands-on experience has yielded invaluable insights, which are then integrated into customer business scenarios to boost production efficiency.
Gigi Hu, Managing Director of Huawei Cloud Singapore, outlined the company’s strategy to provide tailored professional services to key industries in Singapore, including the public sector, fintech, internet companies, and large enterprises. The plan includes investing strategic resources in consulting, planning, solution design, delivery, service, and R&D support. Huawei Cloud aims to assist 10 major enterprises in implementing multi-cloud strategies, enhancing business resilience, and achieving cloud neutrality. Additionally, leveraging practices from China and global operations, along with industry partnerships, Huawei Cloud will support over 50 Singaporean companies in their transition from cloud adoption to intelligent transformation. The company is also collaborating with more than 100 high-quality partners worldwide to serve the Singapore market and support local partners in expanding their international presence.
At industry workshops held during the summit, Huawei Cloud and its ecosystem partners showcased a wealth of industry practices across various sectors. In collaboration with public sectors, Huawei Cloud leverages cloud and intelligent technologies to transform government services, enhancing administrative efficiency and fostering people-centric innovative services in Singapore. Internet giants like Grab and Minimax discussed cloud-native innovations in areas such as e-commerce scalability and global entertainment acceleration. In the FinTech sector, Huawei Cloud, Criat, DolphinDB, and Cobo shared cutting-edge trends and best practices in credit risk management, intelligent data analysis, and digital asset hosting. For large enterprises aiming to drive digital transformation through multi-cloud strategies, Huawei is partnering with Kingdee and Transwarp to optimize production processes and intelligent marketing, accelerating service innovation at scale.
Where Technology Innovation Meets Business Needs
Intelligence has emerged as a key trend and core driver for enterprise innovation and growth. While many customers have embraced cloud technology, the proliferation of SaaS tools has often led to data silos. The primary challenge in the intelligent era is how to leverage the vast amounts of data accumulated in the cloud more effectively.
Aka Dai, Director of Huawei Cloud Marketing, introduced Huawei Cloud’s full-stack innovation for the intelligent era, offering one-stop service capabilities that enable customers to fully harness data and intelligence in the cloud. This approach encompasses several critical aspects. First, the integration of data and intelligence helps customers use data more strategically. For example, Huawei Cloud’s data engineering service and KooSearch Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) solution enable enterprises to unlock the full potential of their data. Second, Huawei Cloud infuses intelligence across business functions—including R&D, production, supply, and sales—helping organizations turn innovative ideas into tangible results through its cloud services and toolchains. At the application innovation level, Huawei Cloud provides CodeArts, a comprehensive DevSecOps platform. This platform supports the entire lifecycle of software development and incorporates AI features. For instance, CodeArts Doer for Coding can autonomously generate, explain, check, and comment on code, significantly boosting software development efficiency.
Building an Innovation Powerhouse Together
Singapore plays a crucial role in bridging East and West. Similarly, Huawei Cloud serves as a global platform powered by an open, versatile ecosystem comprising 500 technology partners and 50 service partners in Singapore.
Huawei Cloud brings cutting-edge technologies to Singapore and helps local partners expand globally. For instance, Singaporean partner WIZ.AI has deepened its cooperation with Huawei Cloud, expanding its business into the Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia. China’s leading fintech company, Sunline, has also established a presence in Singapore, with its customer service fully validated in the local market.
Huawei Cloud is committed to integrating technological innovation into everyday life, nature conservation, and sustainable development. Frank Guo, Managing Director of Huawei International, shared several cases illustrating the tangible impact of the Cloud for Good philosophy. This effort naturally hinges on digital talent. In Singapore, Huawei is actively fostering the next generation of innovators through initiatives like Tech4City, which encourages youth and startups to apply technology for public good. A notable example is SafeGuardSG, an emergency response platform developed by local students that uses AI to improve real-time coordination and community safety. FingerDance, a startup supported by Huawei Cloud’s incubator, has collaborated with SBS Transit to launch the Sign Language Virtual Assistant SiLVia. SiLVia is currently being trialed at the North East Line Chinatown MRT Station in Singapore, helping hard-of-hearing commuters travel independently and safely on public transport. PrimePlay, the winner of Huawei Tech4City 2024, combines games and sensing devices to create a more engaging and effective fitness experience for seniors. Looking ahead, Huawei Cloud will continue to collaborate with more customers and partners to accelerate Singapore’s digitalization in healthcare, green and low-carbon development, and digital talent cultivation.
The summit also features exhibition areas where visitors can experience cutting-edge technologies such as digital humans and smart magic mirrors, alongside the latest technological advancements in GaussDB, big data, and ModelArts. Leading partners including NXAI, Yonyou, Kingdee, and Freedo shared their experiences and ideas to foster collaborative innovation.
