BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- We are now at a pivotal moment: the fusion of AI and communications is no longer the future, but the present.
This revolution, featuring AI, is fundamentally reshaping mobile communications ecosystems, from terminals and networks to the very services they deliver. As we advance toward future network, the core network must evolve into an intelligent hub and value creator for the future development of networks.
With this trend, Huawei proposes a new cloud core network vision: an intelligent system that unifies Service Intelligence and Network Intelligence. This framework is not an incremental upgrade. It is a strategic rebuild of core services like home broadband, voice, and data, allowing operators to leap forward in user experience and reinvent their business models.
Through NE embedded with AI capability, the core network supports efficient, stable operations while enabling precise service recognition and dynamic policy control. This foundational layer fuels advanced Service Intelligence at the upper layer, creating a responsive, intelligent ecosystem.
The outcome? A decisive shift from merely providing connectivity to delivering adaptive, predictive intelligence-as-a-service. With intelligence at the core, the communications network will evolve to be the strategic hub for future growth, transforming the communications network into an innovation platform that guarantees extraordinary digital experiences and accelerates AI-driven breakthroughs across industries.
The future is intelligent, and it is connected at the core.
We look forward to seeing you at MWC Barcelona 2026. Let's explore the next frontier of networks, find new ways to add value, and build the blueprint for sustainable growth together.

Building an Intelligent Network for Terminal-Network-Service Collaboration and Business Success
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Following its breakout success at NRF 2026 in New York this past January, NXN Labs is proving that the future of retail AI has shifted from the "experimental" phase into core enterprise infrastructure.
The San Francisco and Seoul-based startup was officially named to the Innovators' Showcase Top 50—a selection curated by the National Retail Federation and leading venture investors to highlight the most disruptive retail technologies. Adding to this momentum, NXN Labs was also recognized as one of FashionUnited's Top 5 Retail Tech Startups during the showcase.
From NRF Recognition to European Luxury Expansion
The accolades in New York have rapidly translated into commercial success. NXN Labs confirmed it has secured paid contracts with several premier European luxury brands. For these prestigious houses, the value proposition lies in NXN's ability to automate high-volume visual production without compromising the uncompromising aesthetic standards inherent to luxury retail.
"Creative wasn't the constraint; production bandwidth was," says Jen Rhi, Founder and CEO of NXN Labs.
A Stanford alumna and former McKinsey consultant, Rhi founded the company in 2024 after witnessing the friction of D2C scaling firsthand. While the market is currently saturated with prompt-based "text-to-image" tools, NXN Labs distinguishes itself with a proprietary multimodal diffusion model. Their "Image-to-Infrastructure" approach allows brands to automate the entire production pipeline—from model shoots to visual A/B testing of PDP and campaign assets—directly within their digital production OS workflow.
The Road Ahead: Shoptalk Spring 2026
Building on its NRF momentum, NXN Labs is now heading to Shoptalk Spring 2026 in Las Vegas to further its expansion into the global premium retail sector.
As retailers face mounting pressure to refresh digital content across global marketplaces and social commerce, NXN's "Production OS" is emerging as the essential backbone for the next generation of visual commerce. In an era where content demand has multiplied across channels, NXN Labs' thesis remains clear: In modern commerce, visual production—not design—is the ultimate scaling constraint. By solving this bottleneck, the startup is helping the world's most prestigious brands transition legacy studio workflows into a digital-first future.
