re: Heavy Reading Homes In on Huawei Huawei is not following the industrial pace which innovation is king; actually most of the business requirement can be met by the technology invented years ago. why spend so much hard currency on innovation?

The industry do not against the innovation, but the innovation have to be aligned with the business requirement, strategic target, not for sake of innovation.

Huawei is a very good company to combine the proper technology and the cost/operation model. it's revenue model is not to the breed. but the best operation model and special deal with the developing country fueling the growth the company.

Huawei is trying to catch the latest technology in mobile, but trying to achieve the best return of investment in other industry like, routing, switch, fix network, optical, and even storage.

Hopefull this post will trigue some interest discussion regarding how to make money in the so called innovative telecommunication industry.

re: Heavy Reading Homes In on Huawei Huawei are good at what they do, they look at things simply and see what works well and what doesnt, one thing with Huawei is that they are not leaders in terms of development but take all of the good ideas of other vendors and develop these on to there platforms thus reducing there R&D overhead and spend thus making them achieve targets and goals quickly

one example of this is how the 3800 and 6800 optical platforms rather looks like a particular american optical vendors company products with ODU0 switching capabilities

re: Heavy Reading Homes In on Huawei
Isn't Huawei partly owned by the chinese government and by the chinese military? Recently Huawei tried to acquire 3Com, but the US Government blocked the deal. I think the European operators should think twice before buying telecom equipment from a company owned by the chinese government!

re: Heavy Reading Homes In on Huawei very interesting opinion, which appears to be true based on Huawei's growth! How can innovation and progression be based on curent 'models' and metrics everyone else is using? Progressiveness is doing something different to what everyone else is doing, as long as it makes money, even if it 'bucks the trend'.

re: Heavy Reading Homes In on Huawei With lower manufactoring costs, and cheaper engineers leading to lower R&D costs, Huawei is a juggernaught that I don't see any of the old telecom equipment companies being able to beat.

re: Heavy Reading Homes In on Huawei How ignorant somebody is! Huawei is a private company totally owned by her employees!

All employees? Or Chinese employees only?

re: Heavy Reading Homes In on Huawei Huawei is following a strategy of investing heavily in IMS while continuing to provide softswitch solutions for integrating PSTN and VoIP networks. There users know that if IMS becomes a reality, Huawei's customers will have an upgrade path.

re: Heavy Reading Homes In on Huawei What happens when these cost bases rise? If the other vendors move manufacturing to China, would this mean they an better compete with the mighty HW?
