Tencent Cloud pledged to contribute to the European AI aspirations and global competencies at the Viva Technology 2025 in Paris. One of the major messages was given by the Senior Executive VP, Dowson Tong, who said that ecosystem-based strategies and multi-cloud infrastructure are the keys to unlocking the potential of AI. According to him, the next stage of AI should allow more than just optimizing and make it possible to integrate with the industry in depth and have a real-world influence. The goal of Tencent Cloud is to provide Europeans with scalable and modular cloud platforms, which should be secure. According to Gartner, which predicts that 90 percent of organizations will use a hybrid cloud architectural model by 2027.
Driving Innovation Through Strategic Ecosystems and Partnerships
Tencent Cloud is dedicated to creating AI-compatible platforms to enable European companies to be innovative but in a responsible way by providing adaptive, modular infrastructure. Tong demonstrated the examples of how Tencent platform capabilities assist organizations to achieve time-to-value faster, as well as provide operational efficiency and security. With strong global infrastructure and access to high-growth markets, Tencent Cloud bridges regional innovation gaps and supports long-term digital growth.
A key example is its partnership with Orange, which is rolling out the upgraded “Max It” super app to over 160 million mobile users in the Middle East and Africa. The app, built with Tencent’s mini app and real-time chat technology, offers services like shopping, payments, and event booking, all within a single interface. It now hosts over 20 mini apps across various categories and is preparing to onboard more than 100,000 partners.
Tencent’s AI expertise also extends to healthcare. At another VivaTech panel, Dr. Alex Ng, President of Tencent Healthcare, shared that its Hunyuan-powered medical services are live in over 10,000 Chinese institutions and have analyzed 10 million+ scans. The company is enabling pharmaceutical giants like Sanofi to expand operations in China via centralized digital platforms, further proving how Tencent merges AI deployment with practical, high-impact applications.
