Jong-hee Han, Vice Chairman and CEO of Samsung Electronics, proposes ‘an era of hyper-connectivity that opens with customized experiences’ through CES 1, the world’s largest IT and home appliance exhibition held in January next year.
Vice Chairman Han said in a contribution on the 15th, “As a global leader in the consumer electronics and ICT fields, Samsung Electronics must build an eco-friendly ecosystem throughout the value chain through innovative technologies and products and provide more valuable and rich experiences to each consumer.” “I think I have a responsibility to do it,” he said.
He said, “Samsung has recognized sustainable innovation as an essential value and core element of corporate management and has been concentrating its internal and external capabilities.” He added, “At CES 1, which will be held in January, we will hold the ‘Startup with a Customized Experience’ with this responsibility and vision. “We will propose a ‘connected era,’” he emphasized.
Accordingly, Samsung Electronics plans to introduce a new and expanded SmartThings experience through enhanced security and a hyper-connected ecosystem of objects based on the philosophy of ‘Calm Technology’ at CES 2023. Regarding this, Vice Chairman Han stated, “Connection will become easier, each individual’s customized experience will become more sophisticated with AI (artificial intelligence), and connections between devices will become more secure.”
He added, “Through the visualization of SmartThings, we will work closely with various partners in the industry to open a ‘new path’ to provide a safer and richer customized connection experience optimized for individual tastes and lifestyles.” .
At the same time, Samsung Electronics’ activities that can contribute to a sustainable future were also introduced. Samsung Electronics recently participated in the ‘Asian Clean Energy Coalition (ACEC)’ steering group with major global companies and NGOs to expand the supply of renewable energy to major production bases in Asia, and last month, at the COP 27 UN Framework Convention on Climate Change General Assembly, it participated in the ‘Semiconductor’ conference. He participated as a founding member of the Climate Consortium (SCC).
Previously, in September, Samsung Electronics participated in overcoming the climate crisis with innovative technologies such as the development of ultra-low-power semiconductors and products that reduce power use, and announced a ‘New Environmental Management Strategy’ with the goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 9.
Vice Chairman Han said, “Samsung Electronics will continue to pave the way toward the hyper-connected era so that consumers and customers can take action for a sustainable future simply by using Samsung products.”
In addition, “Samsung Electronics has been thinking about ‘what we should do’ rather than ‘what we can do’ with technology,” he said. “At this CES 2023, we will not stop at simply making good products with advanced technology, but will create a better daily life and “We will show the sincerity and efforts of a company that contributes to creating the world,” he added.
