Huawei powers ahead with Guizhou's Cloud industry

Huawei and Guizhou province has been deepening their cooperation. Currently, Huawei is collaborating with Guizhou University, Guizhou Normal University, Guiyang University, and other universities to jointly establish Huawei Cloud Colleges, exploring new engineering talent cultivation models, according to a seminar on Nov 10.

In recent years, Guizhou has transitioned from a pilot zone to an innovation zone in the big data sector, with the growth rate of the digital economy consistently ranking among the top in the nation for eight consecutive years. Since 2015, the scale of the province's digital economy has quadrupled. Behind this success is its close cooperation with Huawei.

In order to promote industrial clustering and strengthen the digital economy in Guizhou, the province, with Huawei Cloud as its industrial core, has focused on the development of both its upstream and downstream industries, attracting an increasing number of businesses and talents.

Efforts have also been made by Guizhou to cultivate more talents and build public service platforms.

Huawei Big Data College, jointly built by Huawei and Guizhou College of Electronic Science and Technology, has trained more than 3,000 students in four majors: big data technology and applications, cloud computing technology and applications, telecommunications technology, and e-commerce.

Meanwhile, Huawei organizes the annual Kunpeng Application Innovation Competition and Huawei Developer Competition in Guizhou, assisting developers in utilizing Huawei Cloud services and tools for development, practice, and application building.

In terms of the public service platform, the data center built by Huawei Cloud in Guian New Area aims to provide technological empowerment services to over 200 small and medium-sized enterprises in Guiyang and Guian each year.

It also aims to offer Kunpeng-compatible technical support to more than 100 enterprises in Guiyang and Guian, provide artificial intelligence-related technical support to over 50 enterprises, and create no fewer than five benchmark projects.
