"In 2022, a challenging external environment and non-market factors continued to take a toll on Huawei's operations", said Eric Xu, Huawei's Rotating Chairman, at the company's annual report press conference. "In the midst of this storm, we kept racing ahead, doing everything in our power to maintain business continuity and serve our customers. We also went to great lengths to grow the harvest – generating a steady stream of revenue to sustain our survival and lay the groundwork for future development."
Also present at the event was Sabrina Meng, Huawei's CFO. She noted, "Despite substantial pressure in 2022, our overall business results were in line with forecast. At the end of 2022, our liability ratio was 58.9% and our net cash balance was CNY176.3 billion. In addition, our balance of total assets reached one trillion yuan, largely composed of current assets such as cash, short-term investments, and operating assets. Our financial position remains solid, with strong resilience and flexibility. In 2022, our total R&D spend was CNY161.5 billion, representing 25.1% of our total revenue – among the highest in Huawei's history. In times of pressure, we press on – with confidence."
In 2022, revenue from Huawei's carrier, enterprise, and consumer businesses was CNY284 billion, CNY133.2 billion, and CNY214.5 billion, respectively.
Huawei is a strong proponent of growing together with its ecosystem partners, and believes that openness and collaboration lead to shared success. The company has continued to open up its platform capabilities across its HarmonyOS, Kunpeng, Ascend, and cloud portfolio, focusing on improving developer experience as well as enabling and supporting its ecosystem partners on all fronts. Huawei currently works with more than nine million developers and over 40,000 ecosystem partners to fuel ecosystem-based innovation and create greater value for its customers.
"2023 will be crucial to Huawei's sustainable survival and development," Xu noted. "Plum blossoms tend to grow sweeter from a harsh winter's freeze. Today, Huawei is like a plum blossom. While it's true that we have considerable pressure ahead of us, we have what it takes to come out the other end – with opportunities to grow, a resilient business portfolio, a unique competitive edge, the enduring trust of our customers and partners, and the courage to invest heavily in R&D. We are confident in our ability to rise above any challenge that comes our way, laying a solid foundation for sustainable survival and development."

Vespa.ai Announces Support for ColPali in Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG)10.10.2024 15:00:00 CEST | Press Release
Vespa.ai, developer of the leading platform for AI applications including Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), has today announced support for ColPali, a new open-source retrieval model for visually rich documents such as PDFs. ColPali enhances document retrieval by embedding entire rendered documents, including visual elements, into vector representations optimized for Large Language Models (LLMs). This reduces latency, improves accuracy, and enables more context-aware information retrieval, especially for visually rich content. By treating documents as visual entities rather than text, ColPali eliminates complex preprocessing, preserves visual context, and streamlines the RAG pipeline. Jon Bratseth, CEO and Founder, Vespa.ai: “With ColPali’s capabilities, combined with our scalable architecture and hybrid search, Vespa.ai delivers the fastest and most accurate solution for large-scale RAG and generative AI applications. Vespa is available as a service to simplify deployment further.
