The country is home to some of the world’s largest and most successful technology companies, including Samsung, LG, and Hyundai. South Korea is also a significant exporter of technology products and a leader in mobile phones, semiconductors, and display panels. The sector accounts for about 20% of the country’s GDP and employs over 10 million people. Korea is made up of 3,400 separate islands, and only 473 of these islands are actually inhabited.
South Korea holds the top spot for memory chip production. The rise of artificial intelligence hinges on cutting-edge hardware, and East Asia, particularly Taiwan, China, and South Korea, stands alongside the USA at the forefront of this revolution. Traditional CPU limitations have spurred the development of specialized AI hardware like GPUs. While the USA designs many of these chips, it’s the large-scale manufacturing muscle of Taiwan and South Korea that brings them to life. This East Asian-American collaboration fuels global AI innovation. While Importing AI infrastructure can be complex, TecEx helps Import AI tech with ease.
