Huawei Collaborates with ITU on Emerging Market Initiatives

Huawei Technologies signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) to jointly promote telecom technologies in developing countries. Under the MOU, Huawei and ITU will work together to improve connectivity in rural and remote areas in emerging markets, as well as to close gaps in broadband backbone networks. As a first step, the two parties will use Huawei's existing training centers in India and Nigeria to provide telecommunications training for local talent. Huawei operates 22 training centers across the world, with 12 strategically located in developing countries including India, Nigeria and Egypt.
