Encyclopedia Britannica was compiled by a team of renowned scholars and experts (including Nobel Prize winners), and provides in-depth knowledge on a range of important topics, with enriching descriptions of important historical figures, events, and phenomena. The encyclopedia has come to be regarded as an indispensable source of reference in the academic world.
"On This Day" is one of the most popular sections in the Encyclopedia Britannica, which showcases important events that occurred on the same date throughout history. The encyclopedia’s partnership with HUAWEI Assistant∙TODAY, ensures that its premium content can be accessed with greater ease — through the "On this day" ability. Users with interest in history and culture can subscribe to this ability via HUAWEI Assistant∙TODAY, and be rewarded with riveting historical knowledge on a daily basis.

The digital presentation of Encyclopedia Britannica owes its success to technical support from HUAWEI Ability Gallery, which is the main point of access and distribution platform for HMS Connect, facilitating one-time access and multi-channel distribution.
