Seeds for the Future
Elite training for next-generation leaders
Our programme
Despite the high number of job seekers across Europe, many ICT job vacancies cannot be filled due to a mismatch between the candidate’s skill sets and the requirements of the industry.
Huawei is aiming to let young people benefit from the experience and support it can provide as a global ICT company.
Seeds for the Future, Huawei's global CSR programme, is a cornerstone of our effort to address the e-skills challenge.
How it works
The elite ICT talent programme selects gifted students for a study trip to China. Participants gain first-hand insights into the work of a multinational ICT company, receiving cross-cultural work experience as well as language training.
The programme offers:
- first-hand work experience at Huawei's Chinese headquarters
- Mandarin language courses
- training on ICT technologies & solutions
- a look at Chinese culture and historical landmarks
Over 1600 young Europeans have taken part since 2011
2000+ will have been trained by 2020
