HM Hospitals and Huawei Launch Global Smart Healthcare Services Reference Project
Barcelona, Spain — At MWC Barcelona 2026, Huawei held a forum titled ‘AI+, Accelerating Healthcare Intelligence’. The event brought together global health experts, academics, and industry partners to discuss the future of digital and intelligent health services. On this occasion, Huawei, together with HM Hospitals of Spain, officially launched the Global Smart Healthcare Services Reference Project.
According to Li Junfeng, Vice President of Huawei and Chief Executive Officer of the Global Public Sector Business Unit, the project is Huawei’s first smart healthcare reference project in Europe. He explained that HM Hospitals combines leading digital technology from China with European healthcare expertise, creating a reference point for intelligent transformation in the global health industry.
In his presentation, Xavier Tarrago Bonfill, Digital Transformation Project Director at HM Hospitals, outlined the technology architecture and achievements of the project. By upgrading digital infrastructure and deploying Huawei solutions such as Medical Technology Digitalisation and Smart Hospital Campus, the two parties are advancing the holistic development of smart hospitals. For managing hospital areas and care spaces, Wi-Fi 7 technology and high-performance devices have been deployed, supported by wired 2.5GE network access to meet medical service needs that require low latency and high bandwidth. The implementation of CloudCampus and the CampusInsight platform also supports more intelligent network management and maintenance (O&M) activities.
In medical technology, HM Hospitals strengthens the Hospital Information System (HIS) and the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) using Huawei’s all-flash active-active storage solution without a gateway. This technology ensures uninterrupted health services. Additionally, the integration of a medical data lake designed with scale-out storage facilitates automatic management and clustering of large amounts of unstructured data. The solution also meets the needs of expanding medical imaging and pathology systems, while providing a high-speed digital foundation for diagnosis and treatment based on intelligent technology.
The launch of Huawei and HM Hospitals’ Global Smart Healthcare Services Reference Project marks a significant development in the two parties’ partnership. By leveraging each other’s strengths, this collaboration enables resource sharing and mutual benefits, while also providing a new reference for the development of smart healthcare services worldwide.
