SESHAN SENGA HUAWEI EXEC. PRODUCT MANAGER, SOUTHERN AFRICA "How is it better than other storage in the market is that the disk the flash disk is manufactured by Huawei themselves, which leads to higher availability and durability. So it is known that Huawei's flash drives are much durable to the competitors like we offer 3 million hours of durability. Yes, so in terms of help from Huawei, that's what I was explaining during my presentation. One person was asking me a question like can I buy the kit directly from Huawei. Yes, Huawei can do it but it doesn't help the local business. So that's why we partner up with the local vendors to enable them and create an ecosystem."

For over 20 years, Huawei has been building an ecosystem in Africa. By showcasing new technologies, it strives to build the continent's capacity.

ADAM LANE HUAWEI PUBLIC AFFAIRS DIRECTOR, SOUTHERN AFRICA "We roll them out to Africa as soon as we roll them out to anywhere in the world. So African companies can benefit. So African countries or governments can benefit as much as any other government or company around the world."

Huawei in the meantime looks to continue to grow its footprint, and establish partnerships in Africa. Asta Tall, CGTN.
