Abstract

Dive into some of the keys behind Chinese Huawei's success in Henry Tugendhat's latest working paper. Tugendhat describes how the Chinese giant in the Original Equipment Manufacturing (OEM) sector is taking Africa, specifically Kenya and Nigeria, by storm. By carefully balancing between training local engineers and keeping control of its intellectual property, Huawei moves forward transferring knowledge to local populations.
