Telecoms equipment maker Huawei Technologies is expected to receive planning permission this week to build a $494 million research and development centre in Britain’s Sawston village.
The facility, 11 km from Cambridge, will be built for researching and developing chips for use in broadband, the Sunday Times newspaper reported.
The development assumes significance as Huawei is currently facing big challenges in supplying its 5G network equipment to UK based telecom operators. UK has recently capped the supply of telecom network from Huawei.
