Huawei launches $40M Singapore centre
Tue, 23 February 2021
Chinese phone maker Huawei on February 23 launched a $40 million regional centre in Singapore – its first in the Asia-Pacific – that lets developers test apps and services for its mobile devices.
The centre, dubbed a “DigiX Lab”, will provide online and offline consultation for developers, and hands-on support in app development using augmented and virtual reality, artificial intelligence (AI), software to port apps to Huawei devices, and other technologies.
The launch comes amid a US ban on Huawei since May 2019 that limits its ability to use US tech giant Google’s services and apps, like the Google Play app store, for its products. This prompted the Chinese firm to further develop its own version called Huawei Mobile Services (HMS).
