Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is scheduled to arrive through Gimpo Airport on the afternoon of the 5th and share his thoughts. It has been about seven months since Huang last visited in late October last year.
According to industry sources on the 4th, after leaving the airport, Huang is expected to hold an informal so-called "samso gathering" in central Seoul with leaders of major domestic corporations, pairing samgyeopsal with soju.
SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won, Hyundai Motor Group Chairman Chung Eui-sun, LG Group Chairman Koo Kwang-mo, and Naver Chairman Lee Hae-jin are set to attend the gathering. Seongsu-dong was once strongly considered as the venue, but due to safety concerns and its distance from the airport, it may be moved to a restaurant in Hongdae Entrance or Euljiro.
Huang's visit to Korea comes as discussions on cooperation with domestic corporations have expanded recently in AI semiconductors, physical AI, robots, and cloud infrastructure. During his stay, Huang is expected to meet not only leaders of major domestic corporations but also startups to discuss cooperation in semiconductors, AI, and Robotics.
