Partner Content In early October, ZTE successfully concluded its Intelligent Computing Congress in Milan, Italy. This major industry event brought together global industry leaders, technical experts, and ecosystem partners to explore the future of AI integration and digital transformation, as well as a new path for building open digital and intelligent ecosystem and industrial cooperation. Among them, Sami Muhammad Salman, Director of Transformation & Strategy at Whale Cloud, closed the program with the keynote "AI – Powering the Next Wave of Business Transformation". He showcased how AI is reshaping Telecoms and enterprise operating models globally, moving from pilots to scaled value of realization.

The emphasis by Mr. Muhammad Salman Sami on "Empowering the Digital Economy" and "Openness and Decoupling" reflects the core consensus of the long-term collaboration between ZTE and Whale Cloud. As a global leading provider of comprehensive communication solutions, ZTE possesses profound expertise in key communication technologies and has established extensive overseas communication infrastructure, encompassing hardware equipment, core network elements, and software systems, complemented by high-quality localized service capabilities. Whale Cloud, leveraging its carrier-grade BSS/OSS system integration capabilities and global public, private and hybrid cloud operation experiences, focus on data governance and intelligent platforms to help the enterprises achieve agile business innovation and closed-loop data value realization. Through deep integration, the two parties have built full-stack digital capabilities spanning networks, platforms, and applications, jointly strengthening the innovative foundation for high-quality development of the digital economy.

Based on complementary core strengths and a synergistic collaboration model, ZTE and Whale Cloud have provided "network and IT cloud infrastructure" solutions to multiple telecommunication operators and leading enterprises across various vertical sectors in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and the Latin America. This includes public and private cloud projects in countries such as Indonesia, Algeria, Ethiopia, and South Africa. These collaborative achievements stem from a precise understanding of customer needs and a persistent commitment to technological innovation.

ZTE’s Intelligent Computing Congress has fully demonstrated the profound synergy between the two leading organizations specifically in technology integration and industrial practice. Leveraging ZTE's full-stack solutions, combining with Whale Cloud's strengths in service support systems and public/private/hybrid cloud operations, they are jointly driving innovation in cloud-network convergence technology, continuously optimizing global network performance and building differentiated competitiveness. Meanwhile, depending on ZTE's global presence and Whale Cloud's local service expertise, both solution providers are accelerating the expansion of cloud services in the emerging markets. This collaboration not only enables the delivery of more efficient digital solutions to global customers but also further promotes the international development of digital technology ecosystem in China.
