Huawei Earns Recognition As Greece’s Top Employer For Third Year Running

Huawei has once again earned a prestigious spot among Greece’s top employers for 2025, according to the Top Employers Institute, marking the third consecutive year it has received this distinction at the national level, and the sixth year running in Europe.

This honour, awarded by the independent organisation, recognises companies worldwide for their outstanding practices in key areas including Human Resources Strategy, Work Environment, Talent Acquisition, Learning and Development, Diversity and Inclusion, and Employee well-being.

The award highlights Huawei’s unwavering commitment to creating a supportive and dynamic work environment that fosters employee growth. This is further reflected in the company’s ongoing investment in educational and professional development programmes. Huawei also continues its mission to drive digital transformation and sustainable socio-economic development, delivering meaningful benefits to Greek society as a whole.

Eliza Apostolou, HR Manager at Huawei Greece, shared: “We are incredibly proud that Huawei has been named a top employer for the third year in a row in Greece. This achievement underscores our dedication to fostering a workplace that nurtures both innovation and the well-being of our people. We thank all our employees for their contributions — this success is the result of our collective effort.”

As part of its commitment to talent development, Huawei is also amplifying its efforts to create equal opportunities in the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) sector. A key example is the continued funding of the Huawei Women in Tech training initiative. Now in its second year, this programme partners with the Public Employment Service (DYPA) and Interlei to offer skill-building opportunities to unemployed women aged 25 to 45. The goal is to enhance their digital competencies and help close the skills gap, empowering women to thrive in the modern workforce.

Amazon Deepens Prime Video Shopping With New X-Ray And Lens Features

Amazon is adding new shopping features to Prime Video, allowing viewers to discover products connected to thousands of titles through its existing X-Ray experience.

The company is also introducing “Shop the Scene,” powered by its Lens visual search technology, alongside updates designed to connect video content more directly with shopping.

From Viewing To Shopping

The new tools build on Shop the Show, launched last year through Amazon’s mobile shopping app. Previously, viewers had to search for “shop the show” to find products related to a program.

Now, X-Ray users can open a Shop tab directly from Fire TV to see products associated with the title. Purchases are completed through the Amazon Shopping app, which can recognize the content being watched and open a synchronized product feed.

The app can also identify what is playing and take viewers directly to a storefront, removing the need for a separate search.

Amazon Targets Shoppable Streaming

Amazon is joining a broader push to combine entertainment and commerce. YouTube offers creator merchandise and shoppable connected-TV ads, while Peacock has tested shoppable programming through Must ShopTV.

Roku has enabled shopping through its remote, while Disney has experimented with shoppable television across Disney+, Hulu and ESPN.

Shop The Scene Uses Visual Search

“Shop the Scene” uses Amazon Lens to identify products or similar items based on what appears on screen, including clothing and home decor.

Exact matches will not always be available because some costumes and other items are custom-made, high-end or unavailable through Amazon sellers. The feature can instead help viewers find similar products or recreate a particular style.

Shop the Scene is available on iOS and Android in the U.S. across more than 600 titles. Meanwhile, Shop the Show is expanding from 1,300 titles to more than 8,000, including Prime Originals, selected licensed content and live sports.

For Amazon, the changes bring shopping closer to the viewing experience, potentially creating another way to generate commerce from Prime Video’s audience.
