Bahrain's leading telecom services operator Batelco said it has signed a parttnership deal with Huawei for the upcoming Bahrain International Air Show2016 (BIAS 2016).

Batelco is the official sponsor and telecom partner for BIAS 2016, which is scheduled to be held at the Sakhir Airbase from January 21 to 23 under the patronage of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa.

The partnership deal was signed by Batelco chairman Shaikh Hamad Bin Abdulla Al Khalifa and Huawei general manager (Batelco Group Account) Wang Jiangning in the presence of Qi Zhenhong, the Chinese ambassador to Bahrain, and Batelco Bahrain CEO Muna Al Hashemi.

As part of the collaboration Huawei, a leading global information and communications technology (ICT) solutions provider, will be the technology strategic partner of Batelco during the show.

Both companies enjoyed a very successful collaboration during BIAS 2014 when they demonstrated ultra-Broadband technology throughout the airshow site.

Batelco said the duo has benefited from a long term partnership over many years with Huawei providing various ICT solutions to support Batelco’s delivery of cutting edge solutions to its customers.

Welcoming Huawei onboard, Al Hashemi said: "Hosting an event of such major significance is very important to the economy of Bahrain as it attracts large numbers of business visitors from the region and further afield. We have been very impressed with the previous events and look forward to participating once again."

Jiangning said that as a strategic partner of Batelco, Huawei strives to be at the forefront of ICT innovations in the region and is always delighted to collaborate with the Bahraini group.

"Our long-term partnership with Batelco and our mutual synergies allow both our organizations to lead the market in terms of technology innovations," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
