Following the news that MediaTek will supply chips to Huawei, Qualcomm confirms that it is also applying for a license to also supply the company too.

Qualcomm Snapdragon on Huawei devices?
The confirmation came from Qualcomm CEO Steven Mollenkopf during his presentation of Qualcomm's performance for the fiscal year 2020. The application for a license is indeed confirmed but it seems that the company has no luck in terms of its approval.
Qualcomm aims to join MediaTek, Intel, AMD, Samsung Display, and Sony as companies who have received permission from the US government to do business with Huawei. For Huawei, this is big news especially as the Chinese giant is fighting to keep the company running.
Reports state that around 300 companies applied for a special license needed from the US government in order to do business with Huawei. Only around 33 percent have been granted permission though.
The US government is providing licenses to companies as long as it has nothing to do with 5G. Samsung Electronics also has a pending application for a license as well.
