Samsung Electronics will soon hold a global strategy meeting to discuss next year's business plan.
According to the industry on the 2nd, the Samsung Electronics device experience (DX) institutional sector will hold a global strategy meeting on the 16th–17th, and the device solutions (DS) institutional sector will hold one on the 18th. The Samsung Electronics global strategy meeting is a twice-yearly gathering in June and December where domestic and overseas executives meet to share issues by business institutional sector and region and exchange views on next year's business goals and sales strategies. About 200 people are said to attend from the DX institutional sector and about 100 from the DS institutional sector.
Roh Tae-Moon, head of the DX institutional sector (president), and Jun Young-hyun, head of the DS institutional sector (vice chairman), will each preside over their meetings. Lee Jae-yong, chairman of Samsung Electronics, is not expected to attend in person as in previous years and will be briefed later on business strategy and other matters.
The DX institutional sector is said to be focusing this time on sales strategies and business goals for next year's new products, including Samsung Electronics' Galaxy S26 series. Plans for global supply of major products and marketing strategies to boost sales are also expected to be shared.
In the DS institutional sector, it is expected to focus on strategies to meet demand for High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) and production plans for commodity memory. With global business uncertainty persisting, it is also said to discuss risk-hedging strategies in response to changes in the global business environment, such as a strong dollar.
