Chinese tech giant Huawei will invest $220 million to support developers in its ecosystem this year with the aim of bringing the number to 3 million.
Zhang Shunmao, senior vice president of Huawei, revealed the plan at a developer conference pre-communication session on March 25, adding that Huawei's ecosystem currently has 2.03 million developers, including more than 1 million cloud developers.
