Huawei in a statement said the partnership with Messi showcased the brand’s alignment with people and brands which demonstrated and strove towards its shared value of connecting greatness. 

Kevin Ho of Huawei said to connect with greatness, “we have to value the growth, learning, experiences and struggles as the parts of our story that took us to where we are now”.

“Those who understand that are always pursuing not success but challenges, to be better,” Ho said.  

“That is what makes Huawei and Lionel Messi a perfect fit.

“Lionel Messi will help our brand to encourage people to focus, persevere and breakthrough; to connect with greatness, especially in Europe, Asia, and Latin America, where Huawei puts great devotions.”
