Herein follow summaries excerpted from select representative speeche
Shi Rong
Senior Vice President of iSoftStone
iSoftStone as builder supporter Harmony ecosystem consistently actively participate Harmony ecosystem promotion construction. Since joining Harmony ecosystem trillion-level blue ocean market beginning year 2022 embarked voyage Milky Way together Harmony ecosystem. Throughout process Softtek garnered significant recognition from clients partners winning "Huawei Developer Alliance Best Eco-Service Provider Annual Award 2022," "2023 Huawei Developer Alliance Yuan Service Innovation Contribution Award," "HarmonyOS Development Service Provider" among other two dozen honors titles.
In the direction of HarmonyOS, we utilize Harmony native ecosystem applications, Harmony ecosystem atomic services, and Harmony ecosystem Smart Connection to build a whole-scenario innovative experience that achieves multi-device interconnectivity. We have successively cooperated with more than 400 ecological brand partners, jointly developed over 1100 ecological products, and obtained more than 640 Harmony Ecosystem Smart Connection certifications, covering industries such as smart home, audio-visual entertainment, health care, smart travel, and maternal and infant care. We have achieved remarkable results in the commercial application of technologies in the fields of Harmony native ecosystem applications, Harmony ecosystem atomic services, and Harmony ecosystem Smart Connection.
With rapid development of Harmony ecosystem many pain points gradually emerge.
Standardization Customization Industry Standards
Firstly, in terms of establishing standardized industry specifications, due to the rapid expansion of the Harmony ecosystem, many companies join the tide of Harmony ecosystem construction however absence unified industry standards results inconsistency in application standards developed independently by these firms leading uneven quality levels their products seriously hindering the rapid development of the Harmony ecosystem.
Talent Cultivation
Secondly, in terms of talent cultivation accelerated pace of Harmony ecosystem construction drives corresponding surge demand skilled professionals dedicated to Harmony ecosystem innovation & development market. However, available pool such talents finite mismatched speed talent development compared growth rate of Harmony ecosystem threatens exacerbate scarcity qualified individuals hindering potential future advancement of Harmony ecosystem negatively impacting prospects ongoing construction endeavors.
Resource Sharing and Complementary Advantages
Thirdly, concerning sharing of Harmony ecosystem resources and complementary advantages among various industries currently lacks specialized entity facilitating coordination cross-sectoral resources resulting duplicated investment R&D severe inefficiencies resource utilization. Consequently substantial resource wastage observed throughout Harmony ecosystem construction process greatly slowing down progress toward establishing Harmony ecosystem.
iSoftStone hopes to jointly discuss solutions for tackling industry bottlenecks with attendees at this year's GIIC closed-door forum, and also plans to coordinate industry resources via the GIIC Alliance to foster talent training, set unified industry standards, streamline access to diverse resources so as together accelerate the globalization of the Harmony ecosystem.
Well known success operating systems hinges twin mountains technology ecosystems. Technically Huawei Company achieved major breakthroughs lowering technological barriers entry. iSoftStone specializes north-south end-to-end solutions facilitating crucial role Harmony ecosystem construction. Successful hosting today's event anticipate alliance provide robust support ecosystem prosperity willing join alliance collaborate others drive Harmony ecosystem forward.
Dong Liang
Chairman of Bossay Digital Technology Group Co., Ltd.
Bossay Network established since 2010 primarily focuses cultivating talents universities developing hardware software equipment. Starting late 2019 deeply engaged Harmony ecosystem talent construction.
Today early hours had opportunity attend deep discussion session GIIC Alliance Talent group. Believe ultimate destination industrial development hinges upon human capital regardless innovations undertaken college students corporate staff members' technical advancements core impetus propelling technological reforms.
During Talent Working Group meeting consensus reached should push globally intelligent Internet of Things sector talent cultivation standards construction perspective GIIC Alliance. Talent standards not only concern domestic universities involve internationalization university education showcase national universities' brilliance world stage therefore constructing global talent certification standards critically important.
Bossay Digital Technology Group hopes more participate contribute related works GIIC Alliance jointly propel alliance’s development.
Li Bin
General Manager of Beijing Zhong-Tianfeng Security Protection Technologies Co.,Ltd
Beijing Zhong-Tianfeng Security Protection Technologies Co.,Ltd. is part of the Police Equipment Technical Division affiliated with China Ministry of Public Security's first research institute; predominantly serving the public security domain providing holistic solutions encompassing intelligent equipment platforms along with protective product technologies. In light of my observations during discussions held recently regarding issues pertinent to the aforementioned topic, allow me to express some thoughts:
Firstly, the foundation of all things interconnectedness lies in security, which means cybersecurity risks associated with smart interconnections pose tremendous pressures on law enforcement efforts. A recent example was the explosion involving walkie-talkies in Lebanon - something I believe highlights why it would benefit us to become involved with the Global Intelligent Connectivity (GIIC) Alliance. Our intention within this alliance revolves around seeking effective and actionable solutions aimed at safeguarding against cyberthreats emanating from intelligent interconnections.
Secondly, after more than ten years of rapid development in police informatization, we deeply feel that informatization has significantly improved both national security and social governance. However, current challenge facing empowerment of police work by science and technology improvement of new-quality policing capabilities involves difficulty connecting disparate pieces of police equipment. Officers often must carry numerous devices when going out on patrol these devices frequently fail communicate properly making their practical efficacy hard to fully realize.
Therefore, secure and reliable connected equipment represents a critical entry point enhancing capabilities governing societal management under police forces. We hope leverage power alliances collaborate esteemed colleagues advance domestically produced operating systems utilized developmental trajectory field public safety apparatus.
Ling Fei
Head of Research and Development Department for JD Experience Technology
As an application partner, JD does not have extensive involvement in internet and system fields; there is much we need to learn from others. However, regarding standards, we possess profound insights.
Recently, we are engaged in developing some cross-end applications based on the Harmony ecosystem encountering numerous pain points along the way. Due to lacking uniform standards our apps require multiple versions significantly increasing costs associated burdening us. Therefore leveraging developments within IoT and the Harmony ecosystem will bring considerable enhancements to our app partners.
For application partners specifically great anticipation seeing robust flourishing of such ecosystems replacing existing Android ecosystem crafting indigenous Chinese-operating system belonging people ourselves.
