Dubai, UAE: Huawei has been awarded the prestigious ‘Best Performance Award’ and the ‘Outstanding Performance Award’ during the 3rd cycle of the Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum (MRM) Business Innovation Awards. The awards were presented to Jiawei Liu, CEO of Huawei UAE, by H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, President of Dubai Civil Aviation Authority, Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates Airline and Group, and Chairman of the Expo 2020 Dubai Higher Committee.
The MRM Business Award ceremony was held under the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice-President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, with the ceremony hosted by Dubai Chamber. The program recognizes companies who are proven leaders in innovation and whose advances contribute to the development of the national economy and cultivate a world-class business culture in the UAE.
This is the third time that Huawei has won the ‘Best Performance Award’, the first being in the inaugural cycle of the awards in 2017. With three wins, the most by any single company, Huawei was subsequently bestowed with the prestigious ‘Outstanding Performance Award’ this year.
H.E. Abdulaziz Al Ghurair, Chairman of Dubai Chambers, congratulated Huawei for its achievements, saying its exceptional performance sets it as a leading example for other industry players. He further encouraged all winning companies to keep striving for excellence, embrace innovation within their organizations, and continue to raise standards within their respective industries.
Jiawei Liu, CEO of Huawei UAE said: “Huawei has always pursued customer-centric innovations that are done openly and collaboratively with the wider ecosystems in which we operate. The business success of our customers is the ultimate measure of the value of any technology, product, or process improvement. The receipt of these MRM Business Innovation Awards are further validation of our efforts to support stakeholders across the UAE to embrace digital transformation and create new value in the economy and wider society.”
Huawei began operations in the UAE in 2001 and has since built an extensive presence in the country. To date, Huawei has invested in its UAE presence by setting up a Regional Supplier Center, a Customer Solution Innovation & Integration Experience Center, a Huawei OpenLab for joint innovation, and two offices in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi, amongst other ventures.
The MRM Business Innovation Awards also recognize how Huawei’s significant R&D investments have enabled the company to develop some of the most advanced technology solutions globally, which are being made available to local organizations in the UAE.
