Q: Who owns Huawei, and how can this be verified?

A: As far as we know, Huawei officially admitted that it had no less than 20,000 stock holders. Huawei was unwilling to disclose the whole list as it was too hard to collect all names. Ren Zhengfei, the CEO of Huawei, owns only a very small share of Huawei.

Many speculate whether Huawei is owned by the Chinese military. Huawei has officially announced that it receives some orders from the military, but these only account for less than 1% of all its orders.
