FKI to Host CES Innovative Companies Forum on the 23rd with Online Broadcast
[Asia Economy Reporter Su-yeon Woo] The International Business Institute, an affiliate management and economic education institution of the Federation of Korean Industries (FKI), will hold the 'FKI CES 2021 Innovative Companies Forum' on the 23rd, inviting Korean companies that won CES Innovation Awards this year to share their management insights.
This year's CES was held online for the first time ever due to the pandemic crisis caused by COVID-19. The scale of participation was less than half of last year’s, and the number of Innovation Award-winning products also decreased from 464 to 386 this year. However, Korean companies that won Innovation Awards accounted for a total of 101 products, representing 26.2% of the total, which is an increase of 4.4% compared to last year.
The FKI International Business Institute plans to invite Innovation Award-winning companies to the venue to provide participants with a more vivid sense of the CES atmosphere and create an opportunity to directly share future innovation technology trends.
Professor Gu-min Jeong of Kookmin University, recognized as the top expert in future technology trend analysis in Korea, and Tae-bong Ko, Center Head of Hi Investment & Securities who is active as a digital transformation evangelist in the securities industry, will deliver keynote speeches. Following them, companies that won Innovation Awards in various industries, including LG Electronics, which received the Grand Innovation Award, GS Caltex, Continental Korea, Bodyfriend, and M2S, will introduce future innovation technologies directly.
