We create value for our customers. Together with our partners, we provide innovative and secure network equipment to telecom carriers. We provide our industry customers with open, flexible, and secure ICT infrastructure products. In addition, we provide customers with stable, secure, and trustworthy cloud services that evolve with their needs. With our smartphones and other smart devices, we are improving people’s digital experiences in work, life, and entertainment.
We ensure secure and stable network operations. We have made cyber security and privacy protection our top priorities since 2018. Over the past three decades, we have worked closely with our carrier customers to build over 1,500 networks in more than 170 countries and regions. Together, we have connected more than three billion people around the world, and we have maintained a solid track record in security throughout.
We promote industry development. Huawei advocates openness, collaboration, and shared success. Through joint innovation with our customers and partners, we are expanding the value of ICT to develop a more robust and symbiotic industry ecosystem. Huawei is an active member of more than 400 standards organizations, industry alliances, and open source communities, where we work with our peers to develop mainstream standards and lay the foundation for shared success. Together, we are driving the industry forward.
We enable sustainable development. Huawei has contributed significantly to bridging the digital divide and promoting digital inclusion, helping to connect places as remote as Mount Everest and the Arctic Circle. We are keenly aware of the importance of telecommunications in emergency situations. Having faced Ebola in West Africa, nuclear contamination triggered by the tsunami in Japan, and the massive earthquake that struck Sichuan, China, our people hold fast in disaster zones to restore communications networks and ensure the reliable operation of essential telecoms equipment. To further promote sustainability, we prioritize a low-carbon footprint and environmental protection. We are also supporting the development of the next generation of local ICT talent to boost the digital economy.
We provide dedicated people with a strong growth platform. Inspiring dedication is one of Huawei's core values, and it manifests itself in many ways. We assess employees and select managers based on their contribution, as well as the extent of their responsibilities. We provide our teams with a global development platform, giving young team members the opportunity to shoulder greater responsibilities and accelerate their careers. In this way, we have enabled over 100,000 Huawei people to yield ample returns and gain memorable life experience.
