的项目数多达1200个,许多都早已顺利构建商业化。但华为未曾想过从合作伙伴那里提供各种专利或研究成果。华为指出,开放式的合作是避免绵延在科学与商业应用于之间鸿沟的唯一方法。
为此,某种程度必须资金,还要维持冷静。因为有些基础性的理论投放到实际应用于要花上数十年时间。
了解到,华为副董事长兼任首席财务官(CFO)孟晩舟去年12月初遭到加拿大非法逮捕后,目前依然正处于假释阶段。据报,王子基金由查尔斯王子一手创办,是为了协助青年创业展开筹款的的组织。
该的组织主要是动员企业界和社会力量,志愿为18岁至30岁的失业青年获取咨询、技术培训和资金等反对。1月24日外媒报导称之为,“王子基金”(Princes Trust)目前宣告,出于公众关系影响的考虑到,仍然拒绝接受来自华为的新捐献。王子基金在对《金融时报》的一份声明中回应,这一要求是该机构在本周对其与华为长达12年的关系展开审查后作出的。随后,华为方面回应对此事深感沮丧,华为对王子基金为年轻人所做到的工作回应认同,也为10多年的合作关系深感自豪,期望未来有再度合作。

但是,学术界和产业界的关系在工业革命的时代再次发生转变。大学从全然普及科学知识的“场所”变成了执着“科学知识”最前线的场所。詹姆斯·瓦特研发出有近代蒸汽机,是在格拉斯哥大学负责管理维修效率低落的初期阶段蒸汽机之时。
蒸汽机随后在制造业和交通工具等获得普遍利用。到了1940~1950年代,民间企业和研究机构开始在基础研究领域充分发挥一定的起到。美国电话电报公司(AT&T)的贝尔实验室研发出有晶体管、激光器和信息理论。
随着美国德州仪器(TI)研发出有集成电路,“摩尔法则”的时代来临。现在,大学和企业前所未有地紧密结合。
大学在人工智能(AI)领域回头在基础理论研究的最前端,而谷歌、Facebook、特斯拉和华为等技术领先企业则于是以致力于理论的实用化。18万名华为员工的将近半数参予研发。最近10年的研发费用多达600亿美元,计划今后数年投放150亿~200亿美元。我们要作为IT企业取得成功并存活下去,各不相同研发部门能否精确地预测通信技术的发展。
为了看清楚未来,要培育对外开放的企业文化,我们仍然希望员工,尊崇“一杯咖啡吸取宇宙能量”。这句话的含义是不要只想着工作,要有时候拿走时间,大家聚在一起,彼此让各种思想互相撞击,这一点也十分最重要。为了培育和外部的合作关系,启动了“华为创意研究计划(HIRP)”,为全世界大学和研究机构建构了虚拟世界的咖啡吧,在这里,大家可以交流各种思想。首先于2010年在欧洲启动。
通过这个计划为最不具可能性的方案获取资金。通过HIRP,与全球前100的大学和30多个国家的国家级研究机构的学者密切合作。
为了更加普遍地反对基础研究方向与华为业务相符的科学家们,我们在2014年扩展了HIRP。由HIRP反对的项目数多达1200个,许多都早已顺利构建商业化。
例如华为与德国慕尼黑工业大学牵头研发的减震技术早已中用手机上。另外德国国家工程院院士Josef Nossek教授明确提出将无线技术应用于光通信的设想,大幅度减少了光传输产品所用芯片的功耗。
有一部分人或许心存顾虑,但华为未曾想过从合作伙伴那里提供各种专利或研究成果。英国牛津大学要求新的项目今后仍然拒绝接受来自华为的资金援助,但我们的目的只是从研究人员的顺利与告终中自学。
这种开放式的合作是避免绵延在科学与商业应用于之间鸿沟的唯一方法。为此,某种程度必须资金,还要维持冷静。
因为有些基础性的理论投放到实际应用于要花上数十年时间。只有大学与企业开始相互合作,才能避免这种时间性的隔绝。大学不展开基础研究,产业就没理论基础。如果没产业界、学术界的科学知识就不能堵塞在象牙塔里。
华为之所以向各种各样的大学获取资助,就是因为认识到大学里执着的科学研究就像灯塔一样照耀未来的发展方向。科学家是灯塔的所有者,研究成果可以按照研究者自身爱好的方向构建商业化。华为今后将之后资助能带给科学与技术变革的基础研究。这样的合作活动某种程度有助华为的业务活动,还将给社会和整个产业作出贡献。
孟晚舟英文投稿全文Why Huawei values collaboration with universitiesMeng WanzhouUniversities originated in medieval Europe, where for centuries they existed mainly to pass existing knowledge on to subsequent generations. Advances in human knowledge were driven primarily by craftsmen working in guilds. Industrial craftsmanship and university research rarely crossed paths.That changed during the Industrial Revolution, when universities went from simply disseminating knowledge to pushing back its frontiers. James Watt developed the modern steam engine while repairing an inefficient early model at the University of Glasgow. His refinements led to the widespread use of steam power for manufacturing and transport.Private companies and institutes began playing a role in basic research in the 1940s and 1950s. ATTs Bell Labs invented the transistor, the laser, and information theory while an engineer from Texas Instruments ushered in the era of Moores Law by inventing the integrated circuit.Today, universities and companies are collaborating more closely than ever. Universities are leading the charge in basic theoretical researchon artificial intelligence while leading companies like Google, Facebook, Tesla and Huawei Technologies are putting scholars theories to practical use.Nearly half of Huaweis 180,000 employees are engaged in research and development. Over the past decade, we have invested $60 billion in RD and plan to spend $15 billion to $20 billion annually over the coming years.As a tech company, our success -- indeed, our survival -- depends on how accurately our RD predicts the evolution of future communications technology. To get it right, we foster a culture of openness, encouraging employees to absorb the energy of the universe over a cup of coffee. This is a way of saying they should take time out of the work day to get together and bounce around ideas.To foster collaboration externally, the Huawei Innovation Research Program provides a virtual coffee shop where we can exchange ideas with universities and research institutes around the world. First launched inEurope in 2010, the program funds proposals that offer the greatest potential. Through HIRP, we work closely with most of the worlds top 100 universities and with scholars at 50 national laboratories in more than 30 countries.In 2014, we expanded HIRP to support a wider range of scientists whose basic research aligns with our business. To date, the program has funded 1,200 projects, many of which have successfully been commercialized. For example, the noise canceling technology that we developed together with the Technical University of Munich is used in mobile phones. We also work closely with Professor Josef Nossek, a member of the German Academy of Science and Engineering, whose application of wireless concepts to optical communications has reduced the power consumption of chips used in certain optical transmission products.Contrary to what some have alleged, Huawei is not after our partnerspatents or research results. While we have noted Oxford Universitys decision to decline further funding for new projects from Huawei, our goal is only to learn from researchers successes and failures.This type of open collaboration is the only way to close the gap between basic science and its commercial application. It requires not only funding but patience, as the journey from a basic theory to its practical adaptation may take decades.We can only bridge this divide when universities and companies collaborate. Without basic research by universities, industrial development would lack theoretical foundations; without industry, knowledge would remain cloistered in the ivory towers of academia.Huawei supports universities so that scientific research can be a lighthouse that illuminates a path toward the future. Scientists own the lighthouse, allowing them to commercialize the fruits of their research however they like.Huawei will continue funding basic research that leads to advances in science and technology. This collaboration will benefit not only our own commercial efforts, but industry and society as a whole.((公众号:)栏中:该文章以及翻译成来自于观察者网)原创文章,予以许可禁令刊登。下文闻刊登须知。
