Huawei Starts Mobile Device R&D in Finland

December 11, 2012 |

HELSINKI -- Huawei, a leading global information and communications technology (ICT) solutions provider, today announced that it will invest €70 million over a five-year period to establish a research and development (R&D) center in Helsinki, Finland. The strategic investment reflects Huawei’s deep and long-term commitment to Europe and will strengthen the company’s R&D capabilities, augmenting to over 70,000 employees currently engaged in R&D worldwide.

The Finnish R&D center will be a key driver in Huawei’s research and development of new technologies for mobile devices. Initial projects will focus on software development for smartphones, tablets and rich-media devices, optimizing the user experience of existing operating systems such as Android and Windows Phone 8. From the outset, Huawei plans to recruit 30 employees for the center, with the goal of hiring more than 100 employees over five years.
