"Cambodia Digital Economy and Society Policy Framework 2021-2035" sets out along-term vision to build a vibrant digital economy and society by laying the foundations for promoting digital adoption and transformation in all sectors of society, to promote new economic growth and improve social welfare in the "new normal". In the wake of the fourth industrial revolution, startups and the technology sector need to be a critical part of the Cambodian economy. SMEs and startups are regarded as pioneers, innovators, and disruptors that can contribute towards elevating societies and economies. One of the most important drivers of a tech start-up’s success is its ability to be an early adopter of emerging technologies, and its openness to building its business through innovative applications, both in service of existing enterprises and institutions, and also as a new market entrant. Cloud computing has emerged as a foundational infrastructure for building nimble, highly scalable, and digitally enabled firms.

By the end of June 2021, HUAWEI CLOUD has launched 220+ cloud services, 210+ solutions and 20,000+ Partners that develop and migrate applications and sale cloud services. News agencies, social media platforms, tech start-up innovation, public services, factory manufactures, gene sequencing organizations, financial institutions, and a long list of other industry customers are all benefiting in significant ways from HUAWEI CLOUD. 4,500 applications were added to the HUAWEI CLOUD marketplace with offerings.

Huawei Cloud have ramped up the capacities and diversified the service offerings to support businesses, and have enabled a new generation of start-up companies. The elasticity of the cloud reduces start-ups’ costs and improves their ability to meet their growth demands.
