Samsung Electro-Mechanics held a forum on September 2 to discuss collaborative partnerships and strategies for securing future technological competitiveness.
President Jang Deok-hyun and other key executives attended the '2026 Supplier Site Visit Communication Forum' at Fine Technology in Yangsan, South Gyeongsang Province, along with representatives from over 40 partner companies.
In addition to members of the Supplier Council, Samsung Electro-Mechanics invited additional partners from the Gyeongsang region to gather insights from the field.
During the communication session, Jang presented the company's current management status and key initiatives for each business division. He emphasized that "the realization of future industrial technologies must be supported by the competitiveness of components and materials," urging close collaboration to secure core technologies and create growth opportunities in the global market.
He also highlighted the importance of differentiating component technologies aimed at high-growth markets such as artificial intelligence (AI), servers, and automotive electronics, while seeking solutions with partners regarding growth strategies, new product roadmaps, and global market outlooks.
Kwon Hyuk-seok, chairman of the Supplier Council and CEO of MK Chem & Tech, responded, stating, "We will continue our partnership to lead high-value markets through technological innovation and quality management."
Samsung Electro-Mechanics collaborates with over 900 suppliers domestically and internationally. Among them, 40 core component companies have been active members of the Supplier Council since its establishment in 1986. Under the agreement with the Shared Growth Committee, the company plans to invest 200 billion won over the next three years, starting last year, to support funding, improve manufacturing sites, and provide tailored training.
