Chinese multinational technology company Huawei has opened a one-stop-shop for startups and developers, marking the company’s first such initiative in the UAE region.
Through this initiative, Huawei aims to empower innovative entrepreneurs in the region to scale and grow by accessing advanced capabilities and enabling technologies.
Huawei will kick off this project by hosting a range of workshops, programs, and one-to-one interactions during the HUAWEI Innovation Week, which will be held in June, at DIFC Innovation Hub. Huawei also aims to make its technologies and kits more accessible to developers to encourage and catalyze the region’s tech innovation ecosystem.
The one-stop-shop invites startups to experience hands-on training with on-site support throughout their tech journey.
“We are honored to participate at the DIFC Innovation Hub and launch our first of its kind one-stop-shop for startups, developers, and entrepreneurs in the region. A thriving tech and entrepreneurial community is a marker of a vibrant, open economy, and we believe that it is the responsibility of those with resources and reach to help foster the unicorns of tomorrow. We invite developers and startups to visit us during the HUAWEI Innovation Week, and look forward to an interactive, engaging, and transformational experience.”

We work with startups and developers to build a prosperous ecosystem, to contribute to the region’s innovation ecosystem, building success and achieving higher levels for tech advancement.”
