ISTANBUL, Turkey, Nov. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- At the 10th Ultra-Broadband Forum (UBBF 2024), James Chen, President of Huawei's Carrier Business, delivered a speech entitled "Network+AI, Unleashing More Business Value". Chen said, "To explore the potential of AI, the 'FOUR NEW' strategy — new hub, new services, new experience, and new operation is crucial. It helps carriers to expand market boundaries, foster innovative services, and enhance market competitiveness, while also optimize network O&M and achieve business success. Huawei is committed to working with global carriers and partners to unleash more business value and forge a win-win digital and intelligent future through the "FOUR NEW" strategy."
As ultra-broadband (UBB) and AI industries go from strength to strength, the number of gigabit fiber broadband users worldwide has exceeded 300 million, and the average speed of home broadband packages has reached 570 Mbit/s. There are over 1,300 AI foundation models and more than 30,000 AI-related enterprises globally. The UBB industry and AI industry are mutually reinforcing, driving the wide adoption of gigabit broadband.
Huawei believes that the "FOUR NEW" strategy is key to unleashing more business value through network+AI.
New Hub: The new Hub is the AI Hub for home services. The core of the AI Hub is the development of AI agents. AI agents need to connect people, things, and applications, understand and respond to the requirements of family members, control smart devices to meet family requirements, and connect AI applications to expand the boundaries of home services. The new hub helps carriers achieve business breakthroughs in the home market.
New Services: Carriers enable new services and aggregate high-quality contents with AI to gradually build a home AI application ecosystem. AI not only can upgrade traditional services, such as interactive fitness and motion-sensing games, but also innovate home services, such as home service robots, health care, and education, etc. It improves quality of life and gradually builds a home AI ecosystem.
New Experience: New services such as cloud gaming, live commerce, AI searches for photos and videos, are emerging one after another. These services have high requirements on network quality, including latency, uplink and downlink bandwidth, and jitter. This brings new network monetization opportunities to carriers. Carriers can seize monetization opportunities through new business models, such as latency-based charging, upstream bandwidth-based charging, and AI-function based charging. High-quality service experience requires high-quality networks. Carriers build "Premium vertical and premium horizontal" high-quality networks to support high-quality service experience and business monetization. The key to building a "Premium vertical and premium horizontal" network is to build 1 ms connections between data centers and 1 ms access to a data center.
New Operation: As carriers' network scale is getting larger, autonomous driving network is becoming more important. AI supports high-level network autonomous driving and improves network operation efficiency. Huawei's L4 autonomous driving network based on the Telecom Foundation Model helps operators reduce customer complaints, shorten the complaint closure time, improve service provisioning efficiency, reduce the number of site visits, and accelerate fault rectification.
In the wave of digital intelligence transformation, the "FOUR NEW" strategy is not only the embodiment of network technology innovation, but also the important driving force for continuously releasing network business value. New Hub, New Services, New Experience, and New Operation support each other and together form a complete road to digital intelligence business success.
In the future, Huawei will continue to remain customer-centric, work with global carriers and partners to explore the digital intelligence era, accelerate the release of the business value of network + AI, and embrace a prosperous intelligent world.

As AI adoption accelerates and technology change cycles continue to compress, many CIOs are finding that traditional leadership models can no longer keep pace with the demands of a technology-first enterprise. While organisations invest heavily in new tools and platforms, leadership capability has emerged as a critical constraint on execution, decision-making, and team performance. At Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane, taking place March 17 and 18 at W Brisbane, Info-Tech Research Group will focus its Adaptive IT Leadership sessions on helping IT leaders evolve how they lead, develop talent, and make decisions in an exponential era.
SYDNEY, Jan. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Info-Tech Research Group, a leader in IT research and advisory, has announced that Adaptive IT Leadership will be a core focus at Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane, taking place March 17 and 18 at W Brisbane. Returning to Brisbane for its second consecutive year, the APAC edition of Info-Tech LIVE brings together CIOs, senior IT executives, and technology leaders for a hands-on, research-driven conference designed to help leaders translate strategy into execution.
The Adaptive IT Leadership track addresses the growing reality that leadership itself must evolve at the same speed as technology. With AI reshaping how work gets done and expectations of IT continuing to rise, CIOs are increasingly expected to lead organisational change, develop talent continuously, and make high-impact decisions in real time. These sessions at Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane focus on building leadership capabilities that extend beyond traditional people management to include financial command, workforce adaptability, and the orchestration of human and machine capability.
"Technology is advancing faster than leadership practices are evolving, and that gap is becoming a serious risk for organisations," says George Khreish, Managing Partner at Info-Tech Research Group, APAC. "Adaptive IT Leadership is about equipping CIOs to lead at the pace of change by developing their teams faster, making decisions with confidence, and operating as true organisational leaders in an AI-shaped world."
