At HUAWEI CONNECT 2025, Jason Li, President of Global Marketing & Solutions from Huawei’s Electric Power Digitalization Business Unit, gave a statement.

“In the power industry, there are three key trends on the distribution side. Firstly, a massive amount of new energy will be integrated into the grid. Taking China as an example, by 2030, the installed capacity of distributed PV will reach approximately 1,000 GW. Secondly, the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is expected to grow rapidly, with around 110 million EVs and approximately 55 million charging piles projected by 2030. This poses significant challenges for power distribution. Thirdly, digitalization is accelerating. AI has gone from a ‘nice-to-have’ to a ‘must-have.’ Power systems cannot achieve effective protection, automation, or digitization without high-quality data and reliable communication. In medium-voltage grids, we rely on private wireless networks to achieve reliable backhaul and support endpoint control. I believe 450 MHz is the optimal solution. As the lowest band within 3GPP standards, it offers wide coverage, supports vast amounts of connections, and provides highly reliable network performance, all at a low cost. Moreover, it benefits from a mature ecosystem. This makes it perhaps the best solution for power companies undergoing digital transformation.”

At Mobile World Congress 2026 in Barcelona, Huawei will showcase more success stories in private wireless networks and 450 MHz applications, along with innovative solutions for intelligent power distribution, substations, and power plant inspections. To explore successful digital transformation in the power sector, visit the Huawei booth at stand 1H50, Fira Gran Via Hall 1.

Attendees can visit Booth 1808 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre to explore Cregis’ infrastructure offerings, including its crypto payment engine, self-custody MPC wallet infrastructure, and enterprise-grade self-custody solutions. According to the team, the event represents not just an industry appearance, but an opportunity to observe and contribute to a deeper question: how crypto assets can meaningfully integrate into real financial systems.

Digital Assets Enter Business Operations

Over the past few years, much of the industry conversation has centered on issuance and trading. But as institutional participation accelerates, the focus is shifting toward a more complex challenge: how digital assets are operated in secure, compliant, and efficient ways.

As financial institutions and payment companies begin using on-chain assets in real business workflows, asset management is no longer just about private key security. It becomes a system-level problem involving multi-party coordination, permission design, auditability, and risk governance.

Against this backdrop, Cregis plans to focus on:

• The security and coordination requirements of enterprise asset management in stablecoin and payment use cases
• How permissions, accountability, and auditability should function across multi-team, multi-system operations
• How automation and intelligent systems are redefining the requirements for underlying asset infrastructure

Stablecoins Move to the Center of Financial Infrastructure

Consensus Hong Kong 2026’s agenda reflects a broader industry shift. Compared with previous years, stablecoin-related discussions have expanded significantly, with the focus moving from whether stablecoins are viable to how they scale.

Topics around cross-border payments, settlement efficiency, liquidity movement, and regulatory frameworks are increasingly seen as the connective layer between crypto-native systems and traditional finance. For many industry participants, this marks a transition: crypto assets are no longer viewed primarily as speculative instruments, but as emerging components of financial circulation infrastructure.

The Debate Has Shifted

Disagreements around the future of crypto adoption remain. But the nature of the debate has changed. At Consensus Hong Kong 2026, the discussion is less about whether crypto will be adopted, and more about:

• What form adoption will take
• Whether infrastructure will become invisible to end users
• Who bears systemic risk, and who defines operational rules

In this context, the maturity of infrastructure is emerging as a key determinant of where the industry goes next.

Observing and Participating in an Inflection Point

The industry is transitioning from “exploring possibilities” to “building durable systems.” The evolving themes at Consensus Hong Kong 2026 are a clear signal of that shift.

As stablecoins, digital assets, and intelligent systems move deeper into real financial and commercial environments, the resilience, controllability, and compliance-readiness of infrastructure will determine how far adoption can go. During the event, Cregis will engage with participants across payments, financial institutions, and Web3, while continuing to focus on the evolution of enterprise digital finance infrastructure.

Cregis aims to provide enterprises with end-to-end digital asset management and operational infrastructure. By building security-first, flexible, and compliance-oriented systems, the company seeks to abstract complex onchain operations into standardized solutions that enterprises can easily integrate and manage — helping institutional clients navigate this industry transition with confidence.

Momentum has gathered through a series of policy signals that place safeguards alongside scale. Draft frameworks circulated by NITI Aayog and implementation roadmaps led by Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology have reinforced principles around responsible data use, model transparency and accountability for outcomes, while stopping short of prescribing one-size-fits-all rules that could chill innovation. Officials involved in consultations say the intent is to embed risk controls early—covering bias, explainability and security—rather than bolting them on after systems are deployed.

Enterprise adoption has followed a similar trajectory. Banks, insurers and large manufacturers are prioritising AI programmes that demonstrate near-term productivity gains and compliance readiness, favouring narrowly scoped applications over open-ended generative tools. Executives interviewed across sectors point to fraud detection, demand forecasting and maintenance optimisation as areas where benefits can be quantified and audited. By contrast, unrestricted text and image generation remains subject to tighter internal review, particularly where customer-facing outputs could expose firms to reputational or regulatory risk.

Scepticism has not slowed investment, but it has reshaped it. Venture funding has tilted towards platforms that promise governance controls by default—model cards, audit trails and data lineage—alongside performance. Start-ups building on foundation models increasingly highlight enterprise-grade safeguards as differentiators, responding to procurement teams that now treat ethics and security as commercial requirements rather than public-relations add-ons. Industry analysts note that this shift mirrors global buyer behaviour, but localised rules on data residency and consent amplify its importance.

Public-sector pilots underscore the same pattern. State administrations experimenting with AI for grievance redressal, traffic management and land records have emphasised human oversight and explainability, often keeping decision authority with officials while using algorithms to triage or recommend. Procurement documents reviewed by this publication show explicit clauses on dataset provenance and bias testing, reflecting lessons from earlier digital programmes where opaque automation triggered legal challenges.

At the national level, interoperability with global standards remains a priority. Engagements with multilateral bodies and peer regulators have sought alignment with emerging norms on risk classification and model evaluation, while retaining flexibility for domestic conditions. Officials argue that a principles-based stance will allow rapid adaptation as technology evolves, avoiding the lock-in that can follow prescriptive rules. Critics, however, warn that voluntary compliance may prove uneven without clear enforcement pathways.

Talent development forms another pillar of the blueprint. Universities and skilling platforms are expanding curricula that combine machine learning with ethics, law and product management, aiming to produce practitioners who can translate policy into code. Industry groups say demand is strongest for professionals able to design systems that pass audits and deliver return on investment, rather than purely experimental research. This has influenced hiring, with firms rewarding cross-disciplinary expertise.

Cloud providers and chipmakers are also recalibrating offerings for a market that prizes trust. Secure enclaves, confidential computing and on-premise deployment options are being pitched to enterprises wary of exposing sensitive data. Partnerships between domestic integrators and global technology companies have focused on localisation—language support, regulatory reporting and sector-specific controls—over raw model size.

A shift towards paperless aviation credentials gathered pace as the Directorate General of Civil Aviation rolled out an Electronic Personnel Licence for commercial pilots, marking a structural change in how flight crew qualifications are issued, verified and carried. The initiative covers Airline Transport Pilot Licence holders and is designed to replace physical documents with a secure digital alternative accessible through the eGCA mobile application.

Officials said the Electronic Personnel Licence, or EPL, allows pilots to store and display their credentials on smartphones and tablets, reducing reliance on printed licences that can be lost, damaged or delayed during renewals. The digital licence is issued directly by the aviation regulator after validation of training records, medical certification and flight experience already housed within the eGCA system, which has been the central portal for licensing and examinations for several years.

The move aligns civil aviation oversight with global trends in digital identity management, particularly as airlines and regulators seek faster verification processes. Under the new system, the EPL carries a dynamically generated QR code that can be scanned by airlines, airport authorities and foreign regulators to confirm authenticity in real time. DGCA officials indicated that the licence is tamper-resistant and protected by multi-layer authentication linked to the pilot’s registered credentials.

Paper licences give way to secure digital credentials is how the regulator internally describes the transition, emphasising both operational efficiency and security gains. According to people familiar with the rollout, the digital format also shortens turnaround time for licence issuance and endorsements, which previously depended on manual checks and physical dispatch.

Pilots holding an Airline Transport Pilot Licence are the first group covered, reflecting the operational importance of captains and senior first officers in commercial aviation. DGCA plans to extend the framework to other categories, including Commercial Pilot Licence holders, aircraft maintenance engineers and cabin crew, once the system stabilises and feedback from initial users is assessed.

Airline operators have welcomed the development, noting that licence verification is a routine but critical compliance task. Flight operations departments often need to validate licences at short notice for roster changes, wet leases or overseas operations. A digital licence accessible through an official app reduces administrative friction and supports faster decision-making, particularly for international deployments where foreign authorities seek immediate confirmation of credentials.

The launch comes amid sustained growth in domestic and international air traffic, with fleet expansion and accelerated pilot hiring placing additional pressure on regulatory processes. Training organisations and airlines have repeatedly flagged delays in licence endorsements as a bottleneck, especially during aircraft type transitions. By integrating the EPL with existing digital records, the regulator aims to address those concerns without compromising oversight.

Security has been positioned as a central feature rather than an add-on. The EPL is designed to function both online and offline, allowing pilots to present credentials even in low-connectivity environments, while ensuring that any verification attempt flags expired or suspended privileges. DGCA officials said this feature was essential for remote airfields and international operations where network access may be inconsistent.

The initiative also responds to a broader push by governments and regulators to adopt digital public infrastructure. Within civil aviation, several jurisdictions have begun experimenting with electronic licences and medical certificates, though adoption has been uneven. Industry experts note that interoperability and trust between regulators remain key challenges, as foreign authorities must be confident in the issuing system’s integrity.

From a compliance perspective, the electronic licence does not alter the underlying regulatory requirements. Pilots must continue to meet medical, proficiency and recency standards, and enforcement actions remain unchanged. The EPL is a format change rather than a relaxation of rules, a point DGCA officials have stressed to avoid misinterpretation within the industry.

Training academies and pilot associations have sought clarity on transitional arrangements, particularly for pilots flying internationally. DGCA has indicated that the physical licence will remain valid during a defined transition period, allowing operators and foreign regulators time to familiarise themselves with the digital format. Guidance notes circulated to airlines outline verification procedures and recommend carrying both digital and physical copies during the initial phase.

UAE and India have elevated their strategic partnership with a sweeping set of agreements signed during the visit of Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, signalling a calibrated push to broaden cooperation across defence, energy, space, trade, investment and food safety. The pacts, endorsed alongside Narendra Modi, reflect a shared intent to anchor bilateral ties in long-term economic and security interests while navigating a volatile global environment.

The visit culminated in the exchange of multiple memoranda of understanding that collectively aim to translate political goodwill into operational outcomes. Officials from both sides framed the agreements as an expansion of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership, emphasising implementation timelines and institutional coordination rather than aspirational language. At the centre of the package is a defence cooperation framework that strengthens military-to-military engagement, joint exercises, training exchanges and defence industrial collaboration, an area that has gathered momentum as both countries diversify security partnerships.

Energy cooperation featured prominently, with accords spanning hydrocarbons, clean energy and grid resilience. State-linked firms and private players outlined pathways to scale joint investments in upstream oil and gas while accelerating collaboration in renewables, green hydrogen and energy storage. The emphasis on clean energy dovetails with the UAE’s net-zero ambitions and India’s drive to expand non-fossil capacity, positioning both as partners in technology transfer and project financing across third markets.

Space cooperation agreements mark another pillar of the evolving relationship. Space agencies from Abu Dhabi and New Delhi committed to deeper collaboration in satellite development, earth observation, data sharing and human spaceflight training. The arrangements are designed to support applications ranging from climate monitoring and disaster management to urban planning and agriculture, underscoring the commercial and societal dividends of space-based assets.

Trade and investment pacts seek to build on the momentum generated by the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement, which has reshaped tariff structures and supply chains between the two economies. New understandings focus on easing customs procedures, aligning standards and expanding market access for small and medium-sized enterprises. Investment promotion agencies agreed to coordinate sectoral roadmaps in manufacturing, logistics, digital services and infrastructure, with sovereign investors and development funds expected to play a catalytic role.

Food safety and agricultural cooperation agreements address a strategic priority for both governments. Protocols on standards, certification and inspection aim to streamline the movement of agri-food products while safeguarding consumer interests. Joint research initiatives are set to target crop resilience, post-harvest technologies and cold-chain logistics, reflecting lessons from climate stress and supply disruptions that have sharpened the focus on food security.

Diplomatic engagements during the visit also underscored people-to-people ties, education and skills. Universities and research institutions announced partnerships in advanced materials, artificial intelligence and health sciences, while vocational training programmes were aligned to labour market needs in construction, healthcare and digital services. These measures are intended to deepen the talent pipeline that underpins commercial ties.

Officials were careful to situate the agreements within a broader regional and global context. With shipping lanes under strain and commodity markets exposed to geopolitical shocks, both sides highlighted coordination on maritime security and supply chain resilience. The defence and logistics components of the package are expected to reinforce cooperation in the Indian Ocean region, where the UAE’s ports and India’s maritime capabilities intersect.

Economists note that the breadth of the accords reduces concentration risk by spreading cooperation across multiple sectors, while governance mechanisms embedded in the agreements could improve execution. Joint working groups, periodic reviews and dispute-resolution channels were outlined to ensure progress is measurable. Business leaders welcomed the clarity on standards and compliance, arguing that predictability lowers the cost of capital and accelerates project timelines.

Critics caution that delivery will depend on regulatory alignment and the pace of domestic approvals, particularly in capital-intensive sectors such as energy and defence manufacturing. Past initiatives have sometimes faced delays linked to procurement processes and technology transfer rules. Both governments acknowledged these constraints and signalled intent to address bottlenecks through empowered committees.
