[edit]Name
(Chinese: 华为; pinyin: Huáwei) officially transliterates in English to Huawei (pronounced as "hwa
way" in English). The character 华 means splendid or magnificent, but can also mean China. The
character 为 means action or achievement. The two characters combined (Huáwei) can be variously
translated as "achievement", "magnificent act", or "China is able".
[edit]History
Huawei Technology in Shenzhen, China
[edit]Early years
Huawei was founded by Ren Zhengfei in 1987, with an initial registered capital of RMB21,000.
[8] Established in Shenzhen, Huawei started off as a sales agent for a Hong Kong company
producing Private Branch Exchange (PBX) switches. By 1990, Huawei began its own independent
research and commercialization of PBX technologies targeting hotels and small enterprises.[9] After
accumulating knowledge and resources on PBX business, Huawei achieved its first breakthrough into
the mainstream telecommunications market in 1992, when it launched its C&C08 digital telephone
switch, which had the largest switching capacity in China at the time. By initially deploying in small
cities and rural areas, the company gradually gained market share and made its way into the
mainstream market.[10]
In 1994, Huawei established a long distance transmission equipment business, and launched its own
HONET integrated access network, combining broadband andnarrowband services in a single
platform, and SDH product line. Huawei generated sales of RMB1.5 billion in 1995, mainly derived
from rural markets in China.[9]
[edit]International expansion
In 1997, Huawei won its first overseas contract,[11] providing fixed-line network products to Hong Kong
company Hutchison Whampoa.[10] Later that year, Huawei launched its wireless GSM-based products
and eventually expanded to offer CDMA and UMTS. In 1999, the company opened a research and
development (R&D) center in Bangalore, India to develop a wide range of telecom software.[9]From
1998 to 2003, Huawei contracted with IBM for management consulting, and underwent significant
transformation of its management and product development structure. After 2000, Huawei increased
its speed of expansion into overseas markets, having achieved international sales of more than
US$100 million by 2000[11] and establishing an R&D center in Stockholm, Sweden. In 2001, Huawei
established four R&D centers in the United States, divested non-core subsidiary Avansys
to Emerson for US$750 million and joined the International Telecommunications Union (ITU). By
2002, Huawei’s international market sales had reached US$552 million.[9]
In 2004 Huawei continued its overseas expansion with a contract to build a third-generation network
for Telfort, the Dutch mobile operator.[9] This contract, valued at more than $US25 million, was the first
such contract for the company in Europe.[12]
In 2005, Huawei’s international contract orders exceeded its domestic sales for the first time. Huawei
signed a Global Framework Agreement with Vodafone. This agreement marked the first time a
telecommunications equipment supplier from China had received Approved Supplier status from
Vodafone Global Supply Chain. The agreement established the terms and conditions for the supply of
Huawei's solutions to any one of the Vodafone operating companies worldwide.[13] Huawei also signed
a contract with British Telecom (BT) for the deployment of its multi-service access network (MSAN)
and Transmission equipment for BT's 21Century Network (21CN), providing BT and the UK
telecommunications industry with infrastructure necessary to support future growth.[14]
In May 2008, Huawei and Optus developed a mobile innovation centre in Sydney, Australia, providing
facilities for engineers to develop new wireless and mobile broadband concepts into "ready for
market" products.[15] In 2008, the company embarked on its first large scale commercial deployment
of UMTS/ HSPA in North America providing TELUS's new next generation wireless network andBell
Canada with high-speed mobile access.[16]
Huawei delivered one of the world’s first LTE/EPC commercial networks for TeliaSonera in Oslo,
Norway in 2009. The company launched the world's first end-to-end 100G solution from routers to
transmission system that same year, to help meet the rapid growth of network traffic and enhance
router efficiency and reliability.[9]
In July 2010, Huawei was included in the Global Fortune 500 2010 list published by the U.S.
magazine Fortune for the first time, on the strength of annual sales of US$21.8 billion and net profit of
US$2.67 billion.[17] In late 2010 it was reported that Huawei is planning to invest around US$500
million (Rs 2,200 crore) to set up a telecom equipment manufacturing facility in Tamil Nadu, India and
$US100 million to expand its R&D center in Bangalore.[18][19]
[edit]Investment and partnerships
Huawei has focused on expanding its mobile technology and networking solutions through a number
of partnerships. In March 2003, Huawei and 3Com Corporation formed a joint venture company,
3Com-Huawei (H3C), which focused on the R&D, production and sales of data networking products.
The company later divested a 49% stake in H3C for US$880 million in 2006. In 2005, Huawei began a
joint venture with Siemens, called TD Tech, for developing 3G/ TD-SCDMA mobile communication
technology products. The US$100 million investment gave the company a 49% stake in the venture,
while Siemens held a 51% stake.[9] In 2007, after Nokia and Siemens co-founded Nokia Siemens
Networks, Siemens transferred all shares it held in TD Tech to Nokia Siemens Networks. At present,
Nokia Siemens Networks and Huawei hold 51% and 49% shares of TD Tech respectively.[20]
In 2006, Huawei established a Shanghai-based joint R&D center with Motorola to
develop UMTS technologies.[9] Later that year, Huawei also established a joint venture with Telecom
Venezuela, called Industria Electronica Orinoquia, for research and development and sale of
telecommunications terminals. Telecom Venezuela holds a 65% stake while Huawei holds the
remaining 35% stake.[21]
Huawei and American security firm Symantec announced in May 2007 the formation of a joint-venture
company to develop security and storage solutions to market to telecommunications carriers. Huawei
owns 51% of the new company, named Huawei Symantec Inc. while Symantec owns the rest. The
joint-venture is based in Chengdu.[22]
Grameenphone Ltd. and Huawei won the Green Mobile Award at the GSMA Mobile Awards 2009.
[23] In March 2009, the Wimax Forum announced four new members to its Board of Directors including
Thomas Lee, the Vice Director of the Industry Standards Department at Huawei.[24]
In 2008, Huawei launched a joint venture with UK-based marine engineering company, Global Marine
Systems, to deliver undersea network equipment and related services.[25]
[edit]Recent performance
In April 2011, Huawei announced an earnings increase of 30% in 2010, driven by significant growth in
overseas markets, with net profit rising to RMB23.76 billion (US$3.64 billion; £2.23 billion) from
RMB18.27 billion in 2009.[26] In 2010 sales outside China continued to be the main driver of Huawei’s
business. Overseas revenue rose 34% to RMB120.41 billion in 2010 from RMB90.02 billion in 2009,
fueled by regions including North America and Russia. Revenues from China rose 9.7% to RMB64.77
billion, as the country's big telecom operators reduced their investment last year.[27]
Huawei's revenues in 2010 accounted for 15.7% of the $78.56 billion global carrier-network-
infrastructure market, putting the company second behind the 19.6% share of Telefon AB
L.M. Ericsson, according to market-research firm Gartner.[27]

shipped to markets such as Japan, the United States and Europe.[53]
Huawei's Devices division grew 24.4% in 2010 to record US$4.7 billion revenue.[53]
[edit]Competitive position
Huawei Technologies Co Ltd, is the world's second-largest telecom equipment maker[54] and China’s
largest telephone-network equipment maker.[55] As of 2008, Huawei ranked first in terms of global
market share in the mobile softswitches market,[56] tied with Sony Ericsson for lead market share in
mobile broadband cards by revenue,[57] ranked second in the optical hardware market,[58] stayed first in
the IP DSLAM market,[59] and ranked third in mobile network equipment.[60] In 2009, Huawei was
ranked No. 2 in global market share for radio access equipment.[61] In addition, Huawei was the first
vendor to launch end-to-end (E2E) 100G solutions, enabling operators to establish enhanced ultra-
broadband networks, improving their service and simplifying their network architecture.[62][63]
According to the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) on 27 January 2009, Huawei was
ranked as the largest applicant under WIPO's Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT), with 1,737
applications published in 2008. Overall, the total number of international patent filings under WIPO's
PCT for 2008 represents the highest number of applications received under the PCT in a single year
and China improved its ranking by one place, to become the sixth largest user of the PCT, with 6,089
filings.[64] As of February 2011, Huawei has applied for 49,040 patents globally and has been granted
17,765 to date.[65]
[edit]Sales
Huawei's global contract sales for 2006 reached USD$11 billion (a 34% increase from 2005), 65% of
which comes from overseas markets.[66][67] By the end of 2008, global contract sales of Huawei
Technologies, China's largest telecoms gear maker, jumped 46 percent to USD$23.3 billion.
[68] Huawei experienced sales exceeding USD$30 billion in 2009,[68][69] and global sales increased by
24 percent to 185.2 billion yuan in 2010.[70]
[edit]Recognition
Huawei Technologies was one of six telecom industry companies included in the World's Most
Respected 200 Companies list compiled by Forbes magazine in May 2007.[71] In December
2008,BusinessWeek magazine included Huawei in their inaugural list of "The World's Most Influential
Companies".[72]
In 2010 Fast Company ranked Huawei the fifth most innovative company in the world.[73] The same
year, Huawei received three honors at the Global Telecom Business Innovation Awards including
"Green base station innovation", "Wholesale network innovation" and "Consumer voting innovation"
awards with Vodafone, BT and TalkTalk, respectively.[74] In 2010 Frost & Sullivan recognized Huawei
as the 2010 SDM Equipment Vendor of the Year[75] and in the contact center application market with
the 2010 Asia Pacific Growth Strategy Leadership Award.[76] On 29 July 2010, Huawei was recognized
by British Telecom with Best in Class 21CN Solution Maturity, Value, Service and Innovation award,
for its innovation and contribution in 21CN and Next Generation Access project.[77] Also in 2010 The
Economist recognized Huawei with its Corporate Use of Innovation Award.[78] In May 2011 Huawei
won two awards at the LTE World Summit 2011 for “Significant Progress for a Commercial Launch of
LTE by a Vendor” and “Best LTE Network Elements.” As of May 2011, Huawei has deployed over 100
SingleRAN commercial networks, which are capable of evolving into LTE, and of those that have
deployed SingleRAN networks, more than 40 operators have announced the launch or the imminent
launch of distinct LTE services.[79]
[edit]Corporate social responsibility
As part of its international support for technology and telecommunications education and training,
Huawei has contributed funding and equipment to a number of universities and training centers in
countries such as Kenya,[80] India,[81] Indonesia,[82][83] Bangladesh,[84] and Nigeria.[81] In the U.S., since
2008, Huawei has sponsored MIT’s Communications Futures Program, a research collaboration that
studies the future of the telecommunications industry.[85][86][87]
In 2010, Huawei joined the Broadband Commission for Digital Development, formed by
the ITU and UNESCO to support broadband deployment to developing nations.[88][89][90] In the same
year, Huawei joined the Green Touch consortium, an industry group which aims to make
communications networks 1000 times more energy efficient than they are today.[91]
In June 2011, Huawei signed a five-year agreement to contribute donated services, equipment and
technical expertise worth over US$1.4 million to Carleton University, in Ottawa, Canada, to establish a
research lab dedicated to cloud computing technology and services.[92] The same month, Huawei
published its 2010 Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Report.[93][94]
[edit]Controversy and response to criticism
[edit]Intellectual property rights
In February 2003 Cisco Systems sued Huawei Technologies for allegedly infringing on its patents and
illegally copying source code used in its routers and switches.[95] According to statement by Cisco, by
July 2004 Huawei removed the contested code, manuals and command-line interfaces and the case
was subsequently dropped.[96] Interestingly enough, both sides claimed success - with Cisco asserting
that "completion of lawsuit marks a victory for the protection of intellectual property rights", and
Huawei's partner 3Com (which was not a party of lawsuit) noting that court order prevented Cisco
from bringing another case against Huawei asserting the same or substantially similar claims.
[97] Although Cisco employees allegedly witnessed counterfeited technology as late as Sep 2005,[98] in
a retrospective Cisco's Corporate Counsel noted that "Cisco was portrayed by the Chinese media as
a bullying multi-national corporation" and "the damage to Cisco's reputation in China outweighed any
benefit achieved through the lawsuit".[99]
In June 2004 a Huawei employee was caught afterhours diagramming and photographing circuit
boards from a competitor booth at the SuperComm tradeshow.[100] The employee denied the
accusation, but was later dismissed.[101][102]
In July 2010, Motorola filed an amended complaint that named Huawei as a co-defendant in its case
against Lemko for alleged theft of trade secrets.[103][104] The case against Huawei was subsequently
dropped in April 2011.[105][106][107] In January 2011, Huawei filed a lawsuit against Motorola to prevent its
intellectual property from being illegally transferred to Nokia Siemens Networks ("NSN") as part of
NSN’s US$1.2 billion acquisition of Motorola's wireless network business.[108][109][110][111] In April 2011,
Motorola and Huawei entered into an agreement to settle all pending litigation,[106][112][113] with Motorola
paying an undisclosed sum to Huawei for the intellectual property that would be part of the sale to
NSN.[114][115][116]
In a further move to protect its intellectual property, Huawei filed lawsuits in Germany, France and
Hungary in April 2011 against ZTE for patent and trademark infringement.[117][118][119] The following day,
ZTE countersued Huawei for patent infringement in China.[120][121]
[edit]Security concerns
Huawei has been challenged in some business deals in US, with Pentagon claiming that Huawei
"maintains close ties" to Chinese People Liberation Army (PLA) [122] Subsequently, the proposed
acquisition of 3COM Corp by Bain Capital and Huawei in 2008 was not approved after being probed
by US Congress.[123] Similar concerns were expressed by US senators over Huawei's bid for a Sprint
contract in 2010.[124] In addition, Huawei had to withdraw its purchase of 3Leaf systems in 2010,
[125] following a review by the U.S. Committee on Foreign Investment (CFIUS).
In February 2011, Huawei responded with an open letter,[126] stating that security concerns are
“unfounded and unproven” and called on the U.S. government to investigate any aspect of its
business.[127] This move was followed up in May 2011 by U.S.-based non-profit organization "Asia
society" that published a survey of Chinese companies trying to invest in the U.S., including Huawei.
The organization found that while only few investment deals were blocked following unfavorable
findings by the CFIUS or had been given a recommendation not to proceed, many Chinese
transactions were politicized by groups including the U.S. media, members of Congress and the
security community [128] (of note is that "Asia society" is financially dependent on Huawei, as is evident
from organization's annual sponsorship charter [129]).
In 2005, the possibility of Huawei's bid on British telecommunications company Marconi triggered a
request from Conservative Party to UK government to "consider the implications for Britain's defense
security".[130] Marconi was later acquired by Swedish telecommunications giant Ericsson. In March
2009, Alex Allan, the Chairman of Joint Intelligence Committee, has briefed members of UK
government about the "threat", allegedly imposed by Huawei's equipment in British national telecom
network BT.[131]
In December 2010, Huawei opened a Cyber Security Evaluation Centre where its hardware and
software solutions will be tested to meet security standards of UK government.[132][133]
In October 2009, the Indian Department of Telecommunications reportedly requested national
telecom operators to "self-regulate" the use of all equipment from European, U.S. and Chinese
telecoms manufacturers following security concerns.[134] Earlier, in 2005, Huawei was blocked from
supplying equipment to India's national network BSNL.[135] In 2010, Indian security intelligence (CBI)
insisted on canceling the rest of the Huawei contract with BSNL and pressed charges against several
top BSNL officers regarding their "doubtful integrity and dubious links with Chinese firms".[136][137] In
April 2010, Sistema Shyam Teleservices Ltd., the Indian unit of Russia's AFK Sistema, didn't get
clearance to buy Huawei equipment.[138]
In June 2010, an interim solution was introduced that would allow the import of Chinese-made
telecoms equipment to India if pre-certified by international security agencies such as Canada’s
Electronic Warfare Associates, US-based Infoguard, and Israel’s ALTAL Security Consulting.[139]
In 2008, the bid for the national Australian broadband network by Terria consortium of vendors was
threatened on grounds of national security due to Singtel Optus proposing Huawei gear.[140] Next year,
Australian government decided to cancel the controversial tender and instead build it's own network.
[141] In September 2009, Australian security agency ASIO started investigating the alleged links
between local Huawei employees and the PLA.[142]
[edit]Treatment of workforce and customers
In February 2009, Indonesian Telecom Operator Excelcomindo Pratama reported that a Huawei's
employee "snuck" into the General Manager's office in attempt to copy the company's files.[143] Huawei
intervened with suspension of employee until the end of investigation.[144]
The US Army's Strategic Studies Institute report on Argentina published in September 2007 describes
Huawei as "known to bribe and trap clients". The report further details unfair business practices, such
as customers framed by "full-paid trips" to China and monetary "presents" to be offered and later used
by Huawei as "a form of extortion".[145] Huawei also raised eyebrows in Africa, where Michael Joseph,
the then-CEO of Safaricom Ltd struggled to cancel a deal soured by Huawei due to poor aftersales
experience only to start receiving pressure from Kenyan government to reinstate the contract.
[146] Telkom Kenya's CEO Sammy Kirui chose to describe the problem differently: "Chinese always
does well in government contracts" - he said, in connection to fact that in 2007 his state-owned firm
unlawfully awarded Huawei with a CDMA contract without the public tender.[147]
In October 2007, 7,000 Huawei employees have resigned and then rehired on new contracts, that
they would not be bound by the unlimited contract provisions of the new Labour Contract Law. The
company denied it was exploiting loopholes in the law, while the move was condemned by local
government and trade unions.[148][149] Huawei's workforce treatment in Guangdong Province in
Southern China also triggered media outcry after a 25 year-old software engineer by the name of Hu
Xinyu, who worked for Huawei Technologies, died in May 2006 from what has been believed to have
been "extreme fatigue caused by overwork". The cause of death listed by the hospital was
bacterial encephalitis.[150][151]
In May 2010, security agencies in India became suspicious of Chinese Huawei employees after
learning that part of Huawei's Bangalore R&D office building is off limits to Indians. The intelligence
agencies also noted how Chinese employees of Huawei keep extending their stay in Bangalore for
months on end. When security agencies launched an investigation to probe the purpose behind these
long-drawn business trips by the Chinese staff of Huawei to Bangalore, they were told that the
Chinese were staying on to learn and master English in India.[152]
