KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Aug. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Huawei Cloud AI Ecosystem Summit APAC 2025 showcased how cutting-edge cloud and AI solutions will unlock economic growth potential for Malaysia and the broader ASEAN region while delivering transformative impact across key sectors such as healthcare and manufacturing. The event was graced by Minister of Digital, YB Gobind Singh Deo, who in his keynote address stressed the importance of ethics and sustainability in Malaysia's AI journey, noting that the country's efforts are not just for national progress but are also critical to the broader ASEAN region. "Our National AI Office (NAIO) has been speeding up the completion of the AI Technology Action Plan 2026–2030 and relevant regulatory frameworks to ensure the adoption of AI technology in key sectors in the country are ethical, sustainable and of high value," he said in his closing keynote. "Central to this ambition is Malaysia's Digital Economy Blueprint, powered by initiatives like Malaysia Digital (MD). These efforts are amplified through strategic collaborations with technology leaders like Huawei. Every step we take is action-driven, grounded in strong public-private collaborations, to shape Malaysia's digital economy," he added. In his closing speech, Chief Executive Officer of Huawei Technologies (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd (Huawei Malaysia) Simon Sun, underscored the importance of the Huawei Malaysia AI Talent Programme in strengthening the AI talent pipeline. "We have set the goal of nurturing 30,000 Malaysian AI talents, comprising students, Government officials, industry leaders, think tanks, associations and others, under this initiative in the coming three years." "We also plan to nurture 200 local AI partners through engagements, knowledge transfers as well as Cloud and AI solution collaborations with top AI companies. Huawei Cloud will also be the bridge to encourage AI investments in Malaysia, spurring homegrown AI innovation and solutions via tie ups with local players as well as through the inception of new Malaysian AI entities," he added. These efforts form part of the broader Huawei Cloud APAC AI Ecosystem Initiative, which aims to build a strong and inclusive AI ecosystem by empowering people and supporting local players. The marquee announcements of the Huawei Cloud APAC AI Ecosystem Initiative were made by Sun in the presence of the Prime Minister of Malaysia, YAB Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim, on the opening day of the ASEAN AI Summit 2025. The Prime Minister's presence underscored the Government's strong commitment to accelerating AI development in Malaysia and across the ASEAN region through strategic public-private partnerships and capacity-building initiatives. Vice President of Huawei Cloud Marketing, Aka Dai, emphasised that intelligence is now a definitive trend, with cloud and AI as the core engines driving innovation and growth. He noted that ASEAN is seizing this strategic opportunity by building an "AI region". "Huawei has invested in ASEAN for 26 years, and Huawei Cloud has served the region for seven years. We will ramp up local investments as well as provide diverse, agile, and inclusive cloud and AI technologies to help boost regional economic growth, enhance competitiveness, and improve social well-being," said Dai in his keynote session titled "Accelerate Intelligence, Ignite Smart ASEAN" on the first day of the ASEAN AI Summit. Huawei Cloud empowers enterprises to fully harness AI through three core capabilities. First, Huawei Cloud's global footprint spans 34 Regions and 101 availability zones (AZs), providing customers with ultra-low latency. In ASEAN, Huawei Cloud has built 5 Regions and 17AZs.

Defibrillator Market worth US$16.44 billion by 2030 with 6.5% CAGR

DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Aug. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The global Defibrillator Market, valued at US$11.29 billion in 2024, stood at US$11.99 billion in 2025 and is projected to advance at a resilient CAGR of 6.5% from 2025 to 2030, culminating in a forecasted valuation of US$16.44 billion by the end of the period. The growth in the defibrillator market is attributed to the increase in the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, the increasing adult population with higher susceptibility to cardiac arrest, a strong focus of government organizations to enhance the accessibility of defibrillators by boosting the installation of public access defibrillators and providing training & programs on defibrillators. Additionally, the rapid expansion of healthcare infrastructure in emerging countries and strategic collaborations & partnerships among manufacturers to boost the new developments in defibrillators are likely to support the market's growth in the near future. Download PDF Brochure: Browse in-depth TOC on "Defibrillator Market" 337 - Tables57 - Figures296 - Pages By product, the defibrillators market is broadly segmented into implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and external defibrillators. The implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) segment is anticipated to capture the largest global defibrillator market share by product in 2024. Timely intervention using implantable defibrillators during cardiac emergencies is a key advantage offered by this programmed device. Moreover, growing approvals of technologically advanced implantable defibrillators and rising preference for subcutaneous ICDs are likely to support the growth of this segment during the forecast period. By end users, the defibrillators market is segmented into Hospitals & Clinics, Cardiac Centers, Pre-hospital Settings, Public-Access Markets, Home Care Settings, and Other End Users. The hospitals & clinics segment dominated the global defibrillators market in 2024. The significant rise in hospitalization for critical cardiac conditions, the growing number of ICD and CRT-D implant procedures performed in hospitals, and the rising prevalence of cardiac diseases among geriatric patients are the major factors boosting the demand for defibrillators among target end-user segments during the study period. By geography, the defibrillator market is segmented based on the region into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America accounted for the largest share of the defibrillator market. This can be attributed to the rapid adoption of technologically advanced defibrillators, favorable reimbursement policy, and the strong presence of manufacturers with a strong focus on strengthening R&D through investments in new product development. Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the presence of a large target patient pool, government initiatives to modernize & expand healthcare infrastructure, and expansion of market players in the region.
