[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Pyeonghwa] Samsung Electronics is preparing an event to introduce its semiconductor business by sector in order to expand connections with global customers, including those in the United States. In the U.S., the company will start with a foundry (semiconductor contract manufacturing) event, followed by additional events for System LSI and memory. Foundry events are also planned in Germany and Japan.

According to the semiconductor industry on the 20th, Samsung Electronics will hold 'Tech Day 2022' on the 5th of next month (local time) at the Signia by Hilton San Jose Hotel in California, USA.

Tech Day is an annual semiconductor event that Samsung Electronics has been holding in the U.S. since 2017. It aims to showcase the company's semiconductor technology status and new products to North American customers. It will be held offline for the first time in three years since 2019. This year, the event will be divided into a morning session for the System LSI sector and an afternoon session for the memory sector.

In the System LSI sector, Samsung Electronics President Park Yong-in will deliver the keynote speech on the theme of "System LSI Strategy for the Fourth Industrial Revolution." Executives from the System LSI division, including Vice Presidents Park Seong-beom, Hong Gi-jun, and Lee Jeong-won, will appear as speakers. Sessions on big data-based artificial intelligence (AI) technology and 6G connectivity technology are expected to follow.

In the memory sector, Samsung Electronics President Lee Jeong-bae will deliver the keynote speech. Attendance by memory sector employees is also expected. The event will introduce systems, DRAM, storage, automotive solutions, as well as sustainable technologies.

Samsung Electronics plans to operate booths and exhibit related products on the day of the event. A Samsung Electronics official said, "The keynote speech is fixed, and other sessions are in preparation. As the schedule approaches, there will be more to share."

Previously, at Tech Day 2019, Samsung Electronics introduced new 5G communication chips such as the Exynos Modem 5123 and the new mobile AP Exynos 990. At the 2018 event, panel discussions involving partners such as Microsoft (MS) and VMware were held.

Before Tech Day, Samsung Electronics will also hold foundry sector events in the U.S. From the 3rd to the 4th of next month (local time), the Foundry Forum will be held, and on the 4th, the SAFE Forum will be held locally. The Foundry Forum will also be held in Germany (7th), Japan (18th), and Korea (20th) following the U.S. event.

The Foundry Forum is an opportunity to introduce Samsung Electronics' foundry vision and latest technologies. The SAFE Forum will discuss foundry industry trends and related industrial challenges.
