in Nanjing, Shanghai, and Xi’an build innovative 
smart campuses. In addition, our cloud services, high-
performance computing (HPC) products, and campus 
digital infrastructure have supported universities and 
research institutes in China, the UAE, Spain, South 
Africa, and many other countries, improving their 
quality of education, research efficiency, and ability to 
innovate.
In 
basic education
, we actively promote digital 
transformation worldwide. We have facilitated the 
development of demonstration zones for smart 
education in China, and helped schools in many 
countries, including Germany, Thailand, and Saudi 
Arabia, build or upgrade campus networks. These 
efforts have enriched teaching methods, made it 
easier to share high-quality education resources, and 
expanded the adoption of digital technologies in local 
education. In addition, we have provided education 
cloud platform services for elementary and secondary 
schools, based on HUAWEI CLOUD, which have 
benefited more than 50 million students who have 
been unable to attend school due to COVID-19.
Healthcare
Huawei teams up with industry partners to accelerate 
the digital transformation of customers in the global 
healthcare industry.
Based on the HUAWEI CLOUD platform, we have 
helped China build a national health information 
platform. We have also helped more than 1,500 
hospitals in countries including China, Turkey, 
Indonesia, and Germany increase their use of digital 
technology, provide smart healthcare services, and 
deliver better experiences for patients.
In the fight against COVID-19, Huawei’s AI-assisted 
diagnosis solution has helped medical institutions in 
China, Italy, Ecuador, the Philippines, and many other 
countries perform tests, rapidly and accurately detect 
the symptoms of patients infected with COVID-19, 
and effectively assess treatment results. This solution 
has improved diagnostic efficiency by five times when 
compared with manual operations, and helped to 
prevent the spread of COVID-19 worldwide.
Internet
Huawei has provided Internet connectivity, data center 
infrastructure, and HUAWEI CLOUD solutions to more 
than 2,100 Internet companies worldwide, helping 
them address the challenges brought by the surge of 
network traffic and demands for computing power 
during the COVID-19 pandemic, accelerate business 
innovation, and improve the experience of end users. 
Huawei’s efforts have also driven the optical and 
intelligent development of the Internet industry.
