Huawei has released its Global Industry Vision (GIV) 2025, a new forward-looking report that provides quantitative and qualitative predictions about the future of industry and society. Relying on Huawei's own business strengths and insights into industry trends, GIV 2025 has its own unique research methodology. It adopts a mix of data and trend analysis to elaborate on global ICT trends and lay out the blueprint for the ICT industry. The data used in GIV 2025 spans more than 170 countries and regions. This report covers three dimensions (all things connected, all things sensing, and all things intelligent) and 37 metrics, including the amount of data generated, the percentage of enterprises that adopt artificial intelligence (AI), and the number of personal smart devices. According to the report, by 2025 all things will be able to sense and all things will be connected, bringing us all into a world where everything is intelligent. GIV 2025 predicts that by 2025, the number of personal smart devices will reach 40 billion and the total number of connections around the world will reach 100 billion, creating a digital economy worth US$23 trillion.
