The annual brand study compiled by WPP and Kantar Millward Brown, notes that Huawei has now featured in the Top 50 global brands for the third consecutive year, as Chinese brands outperform their U.S. counterparts for the first time in the study.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Huawei is one of the world&#8217;s leading global technology brands today and with its increasing brand influence, it is\u00a0the fourth consecutive year for Huawei on the BrandZ\u2122 Top 100 Most Valuable Global Brands. The company&#8217;s brand value and ranking have grown steadily year-on-year thanks to the strong performance of smartphones, tablets and the brand&#8217;s global expansion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The total brand value of BrandZ\u2122 Top 100 reached US$4.4 trillion seeing an increase of 204% over the past twelve years. The total net growth of all listed brands is now close to US$750 billion with all categories achieving full growth for the first time on record. Technology companies by far lead the global list taking eight out of ten places in the Top 10, with a combined brand value of more than half (56%) of the total brand value of the Top 100 companies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chinese brands are undeniably the most eye-catching group in this year&#8217;s edition of the BrandZ\u2122 report, now in its thirteenth year. Tencent, Alibaba and Huawei are just some of the leading names among the fourteen Chinese companies whose total brand value increased by 47% year-on-year. China&#8217;s brands have also seen their growth rate surpass that of their U.S. counterparts for the first time in the study.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rising influence of Huawei has not gone unnoticed in other major brand studies. Last week, Forbes revealed its\u00a0<em>Most Valuable Brands of 2018\u00a0<\/em>list in which Huawei, with a value of $8.4 billion, ranked 79<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0in the Top 100 as the sole Chinese brand. Earlier in February this year, Huawei was listed 25<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0on the\u00a0<em>Brand Finance Top 500 Global Brand Value of 2018<\/em>with a brand value of US$38.046 billion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to IDC, there were 336.1 million units shipped globally in the first quarter of 2018, down 2.4% year-on-year, showing an overall downturn\u00a0in the global smartphone industry. However, despite an overall decrease in smartphone shipments, the average selling price of smartphones increased year-on-year by 21% to 374 US dollars, as reported by GFK.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the third largest smartphone supplier in the world, Huawei did not only outperform the market, but also grew the market share steadily (11.7%). Moreover, the market share of Huawei&#8217;s high-end models (above $500 US dollars) increased to more than 10% driven in part by the breakthrough growth in key high-end regions such as Europe and the Middle East. Along with the global launch of the P20 series, Huawei has firmly established itself in the global high-end market and its brand influence has further improved.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Ipsos, in 2017, Huawei&#8217;s global brand awareness and consumer consideration increased to 86% making it the fastest growing brand among global technology companies in the past six years. Brand perception and attributes such as technology leadership, design and trustworthiness have all gradually surged.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With its high-quality products and trend-setting technological innovations, Huawei is bucking the international industry trends as it gradually moves towards becoming a global iconic technology brand.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7715 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Huawei-BrandZ\u2122-Most-Valuable-Global-Brands-2018_-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"678\" height=\"678\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Huawei-BrandZ\u2122-Most-Valuable-Global-Brands-2018_-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Huawei-BrandZ\u2122-Most-Valuable-Global-Brands-2018_-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Huawei-BrandZ\u2122-Most-Valuable-Global-Brands-2018_-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Huawei-BrandZ\u2122-Most-Valuable-Global-Brands-2018_-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 678px) 100vw, 678px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Huawei today announced that it has\u00a0increased its brand value by 22% in the past year and now ranks 48th\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0Top 100 Most Valuable Global Brands\u00a0according to the latest BrandZ\u2122 report.
