Samsung Electronics is also pursuing future solutions and new business discovery reflecting customer demands. Vice President Bae said, "The explosive growth of AI demands radical memory advancements," and added, "We will lead the paradigm shift in memory through discovering new solutions and businesses such as customized HBM and computational memory."


Samsung Electronics is preparing next-generation memory through close collaboration with partners based on the 'Samsung Memory Research Center (SMRC)'. SMRC is a platform that allows customers equipped with Samsung memory products to analyze the optimal combination of hardware and software of Samsung’s servers and evaluate performance.


In addition, to provide smooth technical services and close cooperation with global customers, Samsung operates Technology Enabling Centers (TEC) in major countries and has been gradually expanding regions, establishing a technical support organization (TECx, TEC extension) in Taiwan since last year.



Vice President Bae emphasized, "The semiconductor market and technology landscape are rapidly changing this year," and stated, "Samsung Electronics will continue bold challenges to maintain future technology leadership and co-growth with customers."
