Huawei Celebrates Wi-Fi 7 Innovations At Network Summit 2025
Huawei celebrated breakthrough innovations in Wi-Fi 7 technology at the Huawei Network Summit 2025 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, presenting awards to nine winners of the 'Imagine Wi-Fi 7 to Reality' Program (Season 3) for the Middle East and Central Asia region. The ceremony marked the culmination of a highly successful program that has driven widespread adoption of Wi-Fi 7 across multiple industries.
Since its January 2025 launch, Season 3 of the program has attracted technology leaders and innovators from across the region, showcasing transformative Wi-Fi 7 applications in education, finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and beyond. The winning projects demonstrated practical, replicable deployment models accelerating Wi-Fi 7 adoption across diverse industry verticals.
Shawn Zhao, President of the Campus Network Domain, Huawei's Data Communication Product Line, said, 'The 'Imagine Wi-Fi 7 to Reality' Program has emerged as a catalyst for digital transformation across industries. These award-winning innovations showcase the tremendous potential of Wi-Fi 7 to revolutionize how businesses operate and deliver services.'
At the summit, Huawei announced the launch of Season 4 of the program in partnership with IEEE and other industry leaders. The new season will expand the program's global reach, focusing on exploring innovative Wi-Fi 7 use cases across industries worldwide, accelerating large-scale adoption in enterprise environments, developing a new generation of Wi-Fi 7 experts, and creating an open collaboration platform for partners and customers.
Huawei's commitment to Wi-Fi innovation has earned significant industry recognition. In 2024, Huawei was, once again, named a leader in Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Wired & Wireless LAN Infrastructure, and also received Gartner Peer Insights Customers' Choice for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure for the fifth year in a row. Additionally, Huawei received the 'Best Enterprise Wi-Fi Network' award at the 2024 Wireless Broadband Alliance (WBA) Industry Awards for its Intelligent AP Energy-Saving Solution.
As the industry's first provider of all-scenario Wi-Fi 7 solutions, Huawei continues to drive innovation with groundbreaking technologies. The company's award-winning Wi-Fi APs extend from connectivity to sensing through their CSI (channel state information) sensing technology. With this technology, Huawei APs can work with Huawei's intelligent network analysis platform and campus digital platform and third-party application systems to intelligently turn on or off electrical appliances for energy saving in smart office scenarios in smart manufacturing scenarios, and enable other innovative use cases. Their AI-powered iCSSR (intelligent coordinated scheduling and spatial reuse) technology greatly reduces interference while doubling single-user speeds in high-density environments. And Huawei's proprietary Wi-Fi Shield employs AI signal scrambling technology to ensure robust air interface security.
Huawei maintains its position as the top contributor to WLAN standards globally, with particular leadership in Wi-Fi 7 standardization. The company's extensive R&D investments continue to shape the future of wireless networking technology.
Shawn Zhao added, 'Our vision is to make high-quality Wi-Fi 7 accessible to organizations worldwide. Through programs like 'Imagine Wi-Fi 7 to Reality' and our ongoing innovation, we're turning that vision into reality.'
Huawei's Xinghe Intelligent High-Quality Wi-Fi 7 Campus Network Solution represents the next generation of enterprise wireless connectivity, offering unprecedented performance, security, and intelligence.

Huawei Cloud President outlines their efforts to leverage AI technology
Alan Qi, President of Huawei Cloud Middle East and Central Asia, discusses their implementation of AI technology, the rate of digital transformation in the region and the potential challenges that could slow the rate of AI adoption for enterprises. Digital transformation and intelligent upgrade happening all around the world at an increasing rate. How do you view these changes will impact enterprises and cloud industry of Central Asia region in recent years? Digital transformation and intelligent upgrades are reshaping industries globally, and Central Asia is no exception. More than 70% of AI workloads will run on cloud platforms because cloud delivers the computing power, elasticity, and ecosystem needed to innovate faster. This transformation will unfold in four stages: Digitisation: Digital tools are adopted to create new products and solutions. Enterprises in Central Asia are already moving to cloud-powered platforms, enhancing efficiency and unlocking new growth. Digitalisation: Next, digital technology will integrates deeper into core operations, for example AI-driven customer insights in banking. Intelligence: Technologies like foundation models, Gen AI, RAG, and fine-tuned models will transform personal, office, and production scenarios. For example, AI-powered predictive maintenance could save millions in downtime. Sustainability: The final stage is AI-driven sustainability where AI agents, embodied AI or spatial intelligence becomes key driver of productivity, supporting autonomous economies. With more and more enterprise adopting AI, what do you think are the main challenges for enterprise in the region, especially in Central Asia, that is looking to adopt AI-powered applications? Adopting AI-powered applications presents many opportunities for enterprises in Central Asia, but it also comes with challenges. The four key challenges that enterprise in the region will need to address is: First, scenario complexity . AI isn't one-size-fits-all. Different industries require customised models with varying scales and capabilities. A solution that works for one business may not fit another, so customisation is critical. .

A solution that works for one business may not fit another, so customisation is critical. Second, data quality . AI thrives on high-quality data, but many enterprises struggle with unstructured, incomplete, or siloed data. Cleansing and processing this data often require significant time and resources before AI can even be deployed. .

Cleansing and processing this data often require significant time and resources before AI can even be deployed. Third, specialisation . While general-purpose AI models are useful, they often fall short in core production systems. Enterprises need domain-specific AI models fine-tuned for their unique operational needs—which require deep expertise and investment. . While general-purpose AI models are useful, they often fall short in core production systems. Enterprises need domain-specific AI models fine-tuned for their unique operational needs—which require deep expertise and investment. Finally, limited AI computing power. Many regions, including Central Asia, still face infrastructure constraints. Training and running advanced AI models require high compute resources, which can be a barrier for enterprises that has no access to scalable cloud or on-premise solutions. Overcoming these challenges will require collaboration—between businesses, governments, and tech providers. The potential is huge, but success depends on tackling these hurdles strategically. Today, AI is a hot topic. From your point of view, how can Huawei Cloud help enterprises leverage AI technology effectively? AI is indeed transforming industries worldwide, and enterprises looking to harness its power need a partner that simplifies adoption while maximising value.
