The key to strengthen
the semiconductor ecosystem is
supporting partner companies!

In June 2020, Samsung Electronics announced a plan to “strengthen competitiveness in all areas of domestic semiconductors through win-win activities with partner companies, academia, and the environment”.

We actively support semiconductor partner companies and try to reach the goal of expanding the semiconductor ecosystem, cultivating talent, and achieving eco-friendly management as our support group of experts with more than 20 years of field experience provides tailored consulting, management consulting, manufacturing competitiveness consulting, and dispatched professional manpower to partner companies of domestic materials, components, and equipment.

we also provide training that targets the executives and employees of partner companies.
