On March 3, during MWC 2026 in Barcelona, Spain, China Unicom and Huawei jointly unveiled the Universe Ecosystem Open Platform and the "AI Renewal" Co-creation Action Plan. This collaboration aims to aggregate the technical capabilities and industrial resources of both parties, accelerate the deep integration of AI and communication networks, and promote the large-scale implementation of industry digital solutions.
Universe Platform: Opening Atomic Capabilities to Build Replicable Intelligent Solutions
It is reported that the Universe Ecosystem Open Platform will open capabilities and resources, aggregating China Unicom's atomic capabilities in four core sectors and the distinctive capabilities of ecosystem partners. It will accumulate a template library and build agent capabilities to enable the rapid output of replicable, scalable solutions. By modularizing and standardizing Unicom's capabilities in areas such as network, computing power, data, and applications, the platform aims to lower the barrier to AI application for industry customers and developers, enhancing innovation efficiency.
Huawei Empowerment: Supporting End-to-End AI Capability System Construction
Huawei will support the construction of the Universe Ecosystem Open Platform, assisting China Unicom in building an end-to-end AI capability system encompassing "computing power, platform, model, and application." The collaboration between the two parties covers full-chain synergy from underlying computing power infrastructure to upper-layer industry applications, aiming to provide a technological foundation for operators to explore AI-native networks and intelligent services.
"AI Renewal" Action Plan: Co-creating New Value for the Industry
The "AI Renewal" Co-creation Action Plan represents a further deepening of the collaboration at the ecosystem level, focusing on driving the comprehensive penetration of AI technology in areas such as communication networks, industry applications, and public services through joint innovation, scenario co-creation, and commercial implementation. This plan will leverage the Universe platform to attract more partners to join and collectively explore new growth spaces in the AI era.
