MBBF 2024, organized by Huawei, with the support of the Global Mobile Association (GSMA) and the Global TD-LTE Initiative (GTI), attracted more than 1,000 mobile operators, ecosystem partners, and enterprises from multiple industries.
The forum discussed issues such as: Business model innovation, industry development, key technology trends in the mobile AI (artificial intelligence) era...
The forum aims to promote the integration of 5.5G networks and AI smart applications, creating greater synergy value for the mobile industry.
At the forum, Mr. Ken Hu - Huawei's rotating chairman - gave an opening speech. He shared: "Looking to the future, AI will change everything. People can use AI anytime, anywhere. Mobile networks and devices play an important role in making that happen."
2024 will not only mark the commercialization of 5.5G, but also witness an unprecedented expansion of AI applications in daily life and work. Globally, more than 3 million AI-integrated applications have been developed, more than the total number of non-AI applications.
The commercial deployment of 5.5G networks coincides with the first year of AI adoption across various devices, which is of great significance, signaling the beginning of the mobile AI era.
Li Peng, Senior Vice President and President of Huawei ICT Business & Services, delivered a keynote speech, sharing how to fully seize new growth opportunities in the mobile AI era.

According to Mr. Li, there are two factors that can help parties seize the opportunity to move towards the era of mobile AI. First, we should prepare the network to support AI, specifically improving network capabilities, especially in terms of bandwidth, latency, and capacity.
Second, use AI to support the network. For complex networks, AI will help automate operations and maintenance, optimize network performance, and ensure the best user experience.
Within the framework of the forum, MBBF 2024 also organizes a special exhibition on new intelligent connectivity for human life, family, vehicles and industries. Booths display multi-modal AI devices and many diverse mobile AI integrated applications.
Typical examples include AI phones, AI glasses, smart cockpits, intelligence in humanoid robots, AI-generated content (AIGC), digital human interaction, real-time call interpretation by AI…
MBBF 2024 also impressed with its widespread 5.5G network coverage across event areas, demonstrating the multi-dimensional capabilities of the 5.5G network along with its accompanying advanced products and solutions.
