At the ceremony, Park Seung-woo, director of Samsung Medical Center, said in his commemorative speech, "We have grown into a representative medical institution of South Korea in name and reality," and added, "Our global status is rising day by day." He also stated, "This year has been marked by visible changes as an advanced intelligent hospital."

This year, Samsung Medical Center's cancer hospital ranked first in Asia for two consecutive years in Newsweek's 'World's Best Specialized Hospitals' and rose one spot to 5th place globally. It also achieved first place domestically for the third consecutive time in the 'World's Best Smart Hospitals' announced together.

In January this year, Samsung Medical Center scored 365 out of 400 points in the Digital Health Indicator (DHI) survey announced by the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) in the United States, achieving the highest score worldwide. In April, at 'HIMSS 2023' held in Chicago, USA, it became the first in the world to achieve Stage 7 in both the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DIAM) and Electronic Medical Record Adoption Model (EMRAM) fields. Samsung Medical Center is the first in the world to achieve the 'Triple Crown' by obtaining the highest grade in three of the seven fields governed by HIMSS.

Director Park pledged innovation and leap forward on this day. While solidifying its status as a global top-level hospital in severe and high-difficulty fields, he plans to accelerate the convergence of advanced technologies so that the hospital can establish itself as an advanced healthcare technology platform.

He also stated that the ongoing hospital remodeling construction will prioritize safety and transform the hospital to be patient-centered, aiming to optimize ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management with goals of becoming an eco-friendly hospital, a safe hospital, and a transparent and fair hospital.

Director Park said, "We will wisely respond to the rapidly changing medical environment and achieve a new leap forward," adding, "We will share every moment with caregivers and draw the future blueprint together."
