Domestic and international semiconductor companies are participating in large numbers at the world's largest mobile communication exhibition, the 'Mobile World Congress (MWC),' which is considered one of the three major exhibitions alongside the US CES and Germany's IFA, showcasing artificial intelligence (AI) memory and solutions.


According to the semiconductor industry on the 13th, Samsung Electronics (DS Division Europe branch) and SK Hynix are scheduled to participate in 'MWC 2025,' held from March 3 to 6 (local time) in Barcelona, Spain.


Both companies plan to operate private booths introducing AI semiconductors for global customers, including AI data centers, mobile (on-device AI), and automotive (vehicles).


Samsung Electronics DS Division, responsible for the semiconductor business, also set up a private booth for B2B customers under the theme 'AI Nexus: Where AI Innovation Converges' at CES in January this year.

SK Hynix opened a public booth at the same event, promoting its competitiveness as a 'Full Stack Artificial Intelligence (AI) Memory Provider.'


MWC, hosted by the Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA), is a wireless communication industry exhibition attended annually by over 2,000 companies from more than 200 countries worldwide, attracting around 90,000 visitors.


Although the event mainly features domestic and international telecommunications companies, the recent expansion of AI-applied services in electronic devices and the increasing construction of data centers for this purpose have led to a growing presence of semiconductor companies.


In addition to Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, this event will also be attended by US companies Micron, AMD, Synopsys, Microchip Technology, Taiwan's MediaTek, UK semiconductor design company Arm, and China's semiconductor design company UNISOC.


This year's event is expected to cover cutting-edge technologies integrating AI with 5G (5th generation mobile communication) and mobile devices.



Mats Granryd, Secretary-General of GSMA, said, "The disruptive energy seen in past mobile growth is reappearing in the AI era," adding, "At MWC 2025, you will be able to encounter innovative products and ideas that will reshape the digital future from AI to 5G."
