On the 25th, Samsung Electro-Mechanics hosted the '2025 Co-Prosperity Communication Forum' with member companies at MK Chem & Tech, the chair company of the Partner Council.

The forum was organized to strengthen technological collaboration with partners amid the rapidly evolving landscape of AI and automotive electronics, and to build a foundation for enhanced competitiveness and sustainable co-prosperity. It is expected to deepen communication with partners and contribute to advancing product competitiveness.

This event was attended by CEO Chang Duckhyun, key executives, and representatives from over 40 Partner Council member companies. Held on-site at MK Chem & Tech, the forum provided a platform for in-depth understanding of partners’ operational environments and further reinforced collaboration.

The program included ‘Partner Introductions’, an ‘Awards Ceremony for Collaborative Projects with Samsung Electro-Mechanics’, and a ‘CEO Dialogue Session’. CEO Chang Duckhyun personally presented strategic directions for each business division and outlined product differentiation strategies. He also introduced next-generation (Mi-RAE) business projects including Mobility, Robotics, AI·Servers, and Energy, sharing Samsung Electro-Mechanics’ future vision with partners.

During the open discussion session, various proposals for mutual growth were exchanged with Partner Council representatives. President CHANG responded in detail to inquiries about growth strategies and global market adaptation, offering practical solutions.

CEO Chang Duckhyun, emphasized, “The future of industry must be built on a foundation of component and material technology,” and added, “By working closely with our partners, we can secure core technologies and unlock new opportunities for joint growth.”

Kwon Hyuk-seok, Chairman of MK Chem & Tech, remarked, “We will move forward together toward the shared goal of co-prosperity,” and continued, “As partners in mutual growth, let us combine our wisdom and capabilities to soar together.”

Samsung Electro-Mechanics collaborates with approximately 900 domestic and global partner companies, with annual revenues ranging from 1 billion to 1 trillion KRW. Among them, 40 leading domestic component manufacturers have been part of the Partner Council since its founding in 1986, contributing to nearly four decades of collaborative history.

MK Chem & Tech, elected this year as the chair company of the Partner Council, is a prominent domestic company that has consistently grown since its establishment in 1996, specializing in surface treatment for printed circuit boards, semiconductors, and electronic components.

Samsung Electro-Mechanics actively promotes a culture of co-prosperity through initiatives such as co-prosperity funds, productivity and quality improvements, safety and environmental enhancements, and specialized technical training tailored to partner needs. In April, the company signed an ‘Agreement to Strengthen the Partner Ecosystem’ with the Co-Prosperity Committee and partner companies, committing to provide approximately KRW 200 billion in support over a three-year period from 2025 to 2027.
