Intelligent infrastructure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Data is the core of every modern business, but many of these organisations operate inefficient legacy infrastructure that cannot support large volumes, evolving workloads, and new digital services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s where Huawei comes in. It offers enterprise infrastructure solutions that address these challenges by providing scalable, high-performance platforms across computing, storage, and networking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDigital transformation is only as strong as the foundation it is built on,\u201d&nbsp;said Mustek MD Neels Coetzee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOrganisations need infrastructure that can scale with them and support long-term growth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mustek and Huawei enable this support by deploying solutions that power business modernisation across South Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Connectivity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The second key pillar of digital transformation is reliable connectivity, as organisations need secure and scalable networks to support their operations, deliver critical services, and engage customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Huawei\u2019s enterprise networking solutions enable organisations to build resilient, high-performance networks that support digital services and business growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This improved connectivity enhances business productivity and enables broader participation in South Africa\u2019s digital economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBy enabling our partners with the right solutions and support, we are helping extend reliable connectivity across key sectors of the economy,\u201d&nbsp;said Dawid Naude, Business Unit Manager at Mustek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Collaboration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The final key to the puzzle is collaboration. This is a critical component of modern business environments, especially with the shift to hybrid work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Businesses require platforms that support collaboration by enabling communication and content sharing across locations and teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The solution is Huawei\u2019s IdeaHub platform, which enhances teamwork and efficiency by providing organisations with an intelligent collaboration experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe ability for teams to collaborate effectively directly impacts productivity and execution, which is why we\u2019re seeing organisations prioritise collaboration,\u201d said Naude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A partnership that drives value<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With a strong local presence and global expertise, Mustek and Huawei provide the assurances that allow organisations to move forward with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe future belongs to organisations that can adapt quickly and leverage technology effectively,\u201d&nbsp;said Coetzee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd that ultimately comes down to how well technology is implemented on the ground \u2014 which is where partners and distribution play a key role,\u201d&nbsp;concludes Naude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mustek.co.za\/huawei-edge\/?utm_source=BusinessTech&amp;utm_medium=Article&amp;utm_term=June+2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Click here to learn more about Mustek\u2019s Huawei solutions.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mustek and Huawei have partnered to help South African businesses move beyond technology adoption and focus on real business impact.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":57,"featured_media":862325,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10459],"tags":[25534,1635,1097,481],"class_list":["post-862323","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-industry-news","tag-collab","tag-huawei","tag-mustek","tag-partnership"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/862323","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/57"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=862323"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/862323\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":862339,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/862323\/revisions\/862339"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/862325"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=862323"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=862323"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=862323"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
