The government of the Nanshan District of Shenzhen previously announced a partnership with Huawei to boost the adoption of blockchain, big data, artificial intelligence, and 5G by establishing the Kunpeng industrial demonstration zone.
Huawei also signed a “strategic cooperation agreement” with the People’s Bank of China but details were kept confidential.
This partnership was realized shortly after the PBoC began to test its digital currency in Shenzhen, in conjunction with Huawei.
In April, More than 100 well-known enterprises, both domestic and foreign, joined the Blockchain Innovation Alliance in China including members such as Inspur, Tsinghua Unigroup, Huawei, IBM, Tencent, Alibaba and Baidu.
