HP supports communities hit by COVID-19

June 3, 2020

HP Inc. is tapping its technologies and resources to help communities across Asia-Pacific respond to the challenges of COVID-19.

This includes 3D printing essential medical parts to help protect frontline workers, developing online learning resources, device donations, as well as relief and support initiatives for partners, customers and individuals. HP Foundation has also contributed more than $1.7 million (€1.51 million) towards healthcare and disaster relief efforts in the region.

“HP is using our technologies in meaningful ways to help our communities navigate the uncertainty during this time. I’m proud of what our employees have done while coping with their own challenges – supporting frontline workers, providing financial relief to our partners, and empowering our customers and local ecosystems to work and learn effectively from home. We will continue to harness our resources to work together and uplift one another in our fight against COVID-19,” said Ng Tian Chong, Vice President & Managing Director, Greater Asia, HP Inc.

HP said it has mobilised its 3D Printing team and global Digital Manufacturing Partner Network to design, validate and produce essential parts for medical responders and hospitals. Since February, HP and partners in Asia-Pacific have 3D-printed over 158,000 parts.

The HP Foundation is focused on devoting significant resources to support community response efforts over the coming weeks and months and will be working with both global and local partners to prioritise actions that will have the greatest impact. To date, HP and HP Foundation have donated an estimated $8 million (€7.13 million) in products and grants to support blended learning and local communities impacted by COVID-19 worldwide.

HP also announced a variety of relief initiatives aimed at arming its global channel partner community to effectively navigate the operational and financial challenges associated with COVID-19. It is also offering webinars as well as free online courses on HP University to ensure partners are able to adjust to the new normal and changes in consumer buying behaviour.

In Thailand, HP recently introduced HP for Business, a programme tailored for SMBs and start-ups. HP for Business is a monthly subscription leasing programme for laptops and printers with trusted security, and 24/7 tech support from skilled consultants and technicians. The programme is designed to relieve financial pressures on entrepreneurs in the short term with better cash flow while providing improved productivity, reliability and scalability for the long term.
