Huawei held the Intelligent World 2030 Forum with industry partners as part of the Huawei Global Analyst Summit 2022. Gavin Gai, President of Huawei ICT Strategy & Business Development Dept, delivered a keynote speech entitled Building Green, Cubic Broadband, and Intelligent Future Communications Networks, in which he gave an in-depth interpretation of the six defining features of the communications networks of the future. At the Intelligent World 2030 Forum, Huawei presented the research and achievements in the communications network and computing industries in detail and called on industry players to work together to realize the vision of the future outlined in Huawei’s Intelligent World 2030 report.
Since 2018, Huawei has conducted in-depth exchanges with more than 1,000 academics, customers, and partners in the industry, organized more than 2,000 workshops, and drawn on data and methods from authoritative organizations to draw wisdom from industry experts. Last September, during Huawei Connect 2021, Huawei officially released the Intelligent World 2030 report, which contained the company’s thoughts on the next decade. The report consisted of one main report and four industry reports, and provided eight outlooks and forecasts for 32 indicators of the future.
Speaking at the forum, Gai said, “Industries are the foundation of the intelligent world. The Communications Network 2030, Computing 2030, Digital Power 2030, and Intelligent Automotive Solution 2030 reports provide insights into the technology trends of these respective industries, and can serve as a reference for industry development in the future.”
“It is our relentless pursuit of superior experience that drives innovation and evolution in communications networks. We are about to witness the change from tens of billions of connections between people to hundreds of billions of connections between things. We believe that the communications networks of 2030 will have six defining features: cubic broadband networks, harmonized communication and sensing, deterministic experience, AI-native, security and trustworthiness, and green and low-carbon construction and operation.” Gai also gave an in-depth interpretation of the future of the communications industry.
Jiang Tao, Vice President of Huawei’s Computing Product Line, delivered a speech entitled Building a Green, Integrated, and Collaborative Foundation for Intelligent Computing.” By 2030, the computing industry will be characterized by physical-layer breakthroughs, cognitive intelligence, diversified computing, intrinsic security, multi-dimensional collaboration, and green, integrated computing,” Jiang said in the speech, “The digital and physical worlds will be seamlessly integrated, and computing will be able to simulate, reproduce, and enhance the physical world.”
Also present at the event was Tian Yonghong, IEEE Fellow and Chief Technology Engineer of Peng Cheng Cloud Brain. In his speech Tian said that through building super AI computing, Peng Cheng Laboratory is creating an innovation engine of the intelligent world. He went on to say that AI is changing the way the economy grows and approaches to science and technology innovation, and that the super intelligent computing platform his organization is creating will address top global challenges.
Other guests who participated in the event included those deeply involved in the Intelligent World 2030 project. Kevin Zhang, CMO of Huawei’s ICT Infrastructure Business, and Wang Youchun, Director of Huawei’s ICT Insight Dept, shared their thoughts on the intelligent world of 2030. They also participated in discussions about how ICT technologies can advance socio-economic development and green development, as well as how industries can move toward the intelligent world of 2030.
Much of the discussion at the event centered around digitalization and decarbonization, and how these two major trends drive and reinforce each other, both serving as engines of the world’s green development. Intelligent World application scenarios, computing and connectivity technology innovation, and green development practices are discussed at the event. Huawei, joined by other participants, called for concerted efforts across industries and society as a whole to move toward the intelligent world.
