Intel CEO to Visit Korea on the 9th... Will He Meet Samsung Chairman Lee Jae-yong?
[Asia Economy Reporter Kwangho Lee] Intel's CEO Pat Gelsinger is visiting Korea again after seven months. Attention is focused on what schedule he will follow.
According to industry sources on the 4th, CEO Gelsinger will visit Korea on the 9th of this month. It is reported that CEO Gelsinger is visiting Korea for meetings with company employees and client companies. During this visit, CEO Gelsinger is expected to meet Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-yong and others.
During his previous visit to Korea in May, CEO Gelsinger met with Chairman Lee to discuss cooperation plans in various fields such as next-generation memory, fabless system semiconductors, foundry (semiconductor contract manufacturing), PC, and mobile.
Samsung Electronics and Intel are rivals in the global semiconductor market. Samsung Electronics, the "memory powerhouse," and Intel, the "central processing unit (CPU) powerhouse," are inseparable partners.
Compatibility with the CPU, which acts as the brain of the computer, is important in developing next-generation memory products such as DDR5 (for PC and servers) and LPDDR6 (for mobile devices). Intel's standards in the CPU market have become the global standard for computers, leading the technology.
