Huawei Cloud hosts Developer Conference 2025 to empower local talent
Huawei Cloud, in collaboration with the Center for Digital Entrepreneurship and NAUATECH, recently hosted the Saudi Arabia 2025 Huawei Cloud Developer Conference. Held at CODE's headquarters in Riyadh, the event brought together a group of developers and startup founders from across the Kingdom. The conference highlighted the added value Huawei Cloud brings to the local developer and startup ecosystems. It showcased Huawei's comprehensive, AI-powered cloud services and its suite of cloud-native development tools. Serving as a strategic platform for knowledge exchange, the event reinforced Huawei's commitment to building a robust digital ecosystem and enabling technical talent in alignment with Saudi Arabia's ambitious digital transformation agenda. A key focus of the event was hands-on empowerment through specialized training programs, advanced development tools, and globally recognized professional certifications. Saudi developers now have direct access to Huawei's global cloud initiatives, including the Huawei Cloud Developer Program, the Huawei Cloud Startup Program, and the Huawei Cloud Certified Developer for AI. These initiatives not only provide technical training but also offer integrated business support and international certifications — enabling developers to build strong career paths, scale their innovations, and contribute to Saudi Arabia's growing cloud ecosystem. During the event, Huawei Cloud reaffirmed its support for the Kingdom's expanding developer community. The company currently offers more than 90 cloud services, with plans to expand to more than 200 services through three availability zones in the Riyadh region. Huawei continues to invest in infrastructure, training, and tooling to accelerate the growth of Saudi Arabia's cloud landscape. Notably, Huawei Cloud has received 'Class C' certification — the highest cloud classification awarded by the Communications, Space and Technology Commission — demonstrating the platform's compliance with strict local and international standards for security, performance, and reliability. The conference also featured highlights of Huawei's latest AI infrastructure innovations. Attendees were introduced to ModelArts, Huawei's cutting-edge AI development platform that significantly reduces the time and complexity of deploying AI solutions — from months to just days.

Huawei unveils HarmonyOS 6 with new AI agent framework, Dev Beta now out
Huawei kicked off its Developer Conference today, and Executive Director Richard Yu took the stage to unveil HarmonyOS 6 - Huawei's next major launch of the in-house software. HarmonyOS 6 brings the usual design polish, tweaks, and improvements, but the OS' most important new feature is the new Intelligent Agent Framework. It aims to bring more human-like and natural interaction between you and HarmonyOS 6's new personal assistant - XiaoYi. The aim here is for the OS to intuitively understand what you want and respond depending on it, instead of relying on simple voice prompts. XiaoYi supports scanning your entire smartphone screen to give you results, similar to Circle to Search. On stage, Huawei showed off HarmonyOS 6's AI framework in action - you can talk to ChatExcel to handle your Excel needs, ask XiaoYi to help you with making apps for HarmonyOS 6, etc. A neat feature of HarmonyOS 6 is Touch and Share. It works between eligible PCs and smartphones (no word yet on which those are but they could be Huawei-exclusive) and allows you to send multiple files, or connect to a game with your friends by simply tapping the phone to the computer's screen. The HarmonyOS 6 Developer Beta Program is now live, and developers can sign up until June 30. Devs need to complete verification with Huawei's Developer Alliance to enroll. The supported devices are the Huawei Mate 70 and 70 Pro, the Mate 60 and 60 Pro, the Mate X5, and the MatePad Pro 11-inch (2024) and MatePad Pro 13.2 (2025). Source | Via 1 | Via 2
