Huawei is constantly exploring new regions to expand its AI platform and the Asia-Pacific market seems to be a big help in this segment. The tech giant sees this market as a vast ground to develop and launch comprehensive AI solutions.
According to a report, Huawei Cloud sees Asia Pacific as a large and potential market for its AI solutions. Despite the US ban and trade restrictions, the company has grown its AI services in the region 20 times over the past four years.
Jacqueline Shi, president of Huawei’s global marketing and services cloud business, attended a media interaction in Bangkok on Thursday. She said the company will always be a major contributor to AI solutions in the Asia-Pacific market.
“For the company’s next step in the region, we will continue to provide comprehensive AI solutions,” said Jacqueline Shi.
With AI solutions, Huawei refers to Ascend Cloud Services, self-developed LLMs, generative AI, Pangu tech, the unique AI development platform ModelArts, and much more.
The latest report suggests that Huawei is keen to diversify its revenue streams globally. It also reflects that the company is looking to capture more international customers. This will eventually help the company catch up with its competitors in the era of advanced artificial intelligence.

Huawei also hopes that its AI expansion plan will help it meet the growing demand for GenAI services across various industries. Another advantage is that the Asia-Pacific region is one of Huawei’s largest markets for cloud computing services.
This is the first step for “serverless database” solutions before their global launch. Huawei recently launched an Arabic-language model in Egypt. The company also opened a data center in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, for cloud services last year.
The tech giant has now partnered with weather forecasters in Thailand. It will also deliver the Pangu Master of Laws (LL.M.) to improve efficiency and help reduce costs in the country. This is just the beginning and the company may soon launch more AI products in the region.
