BlockBeats report: On July 23, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol will meet with executives from several global AI giants in San Francisco during his visit to the United States this week, aiming to strengthen South Korea’s position in the global AI sector and promote substantive collaboration. It is reported that President Yoon will hold separate meetings with NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, and Broadcom CEO Hock Tan. Additionally, President Yoon will attend the San Francisco AI Summit and witness the signing of cooperation agreements between South Korean companies and major tech firms. Executives from South Korean companies including Samsung Electronics (Lee Jae-yong), SK Group, Hyundai Motor, and Naver will also meet concurrently with the aforementioned AI leaders.
Analysis indicates that Lee Jae-myung’s move will strengthen South Korea’s role in the global AI supply chain, particularly in collaboration on high-bandwidth memory (HBM), GPUs, AI infrastructure, and generative AI services. The summit will send a strong signal to the market, boosting confidence in AI infrastructure investment, especially amid the current pullback in tech stocks. (The Korea Times)
