It looks like Samsung has different affection for the Indian market as it not only launch specific electronic products but also addresses various global initiatives that specifically belong to this region.

For example, the company established its first smart class in Navodaya Vidyalaya in 2013 in collaboration with Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti. The program has benefitted over 4.3 lakh less-privileged students in the country so far.

Now according to Samsung India, the company will be adding 80 more smart classes to JNV schools located in different parts of the country, as part of its ongoing global initiative.

Smart classes set up by Samsung will be available to 625 JNV schools and 10 Navodaya leadership institutes. It is worth mentioning that it will now cover 835 classrooms across the country, covering around five lakh students so far.

However, it is also said that the majority of the new smart classes are being set up in remote rural districts of 17 states such as Kupwara in Jammu & Kashmir, Dahod in Gujarat, Sukma in Chhattisgarh, and more.

For your info, the JNV schools are run by the Ministry of Education to make education available to capable kids across rural India. Apart from that, there are currently 661 JNV schools in the country.

Samsung’s vision towards digital education

Providing digital education in the less-resourced areas is one of the greatest yet positive steps taken by Samsung. This beautiful campaign will definitely help government agencies to spread E-education to poor students via smart classes.

We are sure that Samsung is already expanding this drive to various other regions also, where high-quality education is not easy to get or somehow expensive to afford. Besides, it is a great way to showcase the kind side of the company and other OEMs should also learn from Samsung to implement the same.

China’s AI chip ambitions crushed as US forces Samsung, TSMC to cut ties

US crushes China’s AI chip ambitions by limiting Samsung, TSMC

  • Samsung and TSMC are blocked from supplying 7nm and below AI chips to Chinese firms.
  • The US move disrupts the global chip supply, with Taiwan’s key role at risk.
  • Samsung is also impacted by US regulations, limiting its ability to provide advanced chip manufacturing to Chinese clients.

TSMC banned AI chip supply to its Chinese clients following US orders. Now, a report suggests that Samsung is also subject to US restrictions, limiting the Foundry Division from supplying 7nm and below AI chips to Chinese firms.

The US-based Intel is also said to be complying with US regulations. Currently, only TSMC, Samsung, and Intel can provide foundry services for chips at 7nm or below. That said, China’s efforts to develop advanced AI chips will be fully blocked.

As all three major foundry players are now restricted, Alibaba’s AI chip design subsidiary, Pingtouge, could hit hard. China’s SMIC claims to have 7nm production capability, but it lacks the economic scale and efficiency to compete.

It’s worth noting that Chinese firms face setbacks in developing AI chips. The vendors will increasingly need to rely on NVIDIA and AMD for downgraded products, which meet US regulations.

The fresh US restrictions initially came to light from a notice TSMC issued last week. The chip manufacturer announced that it would suspend supply of 7nm and below technologies to all Chinese AI clients starting November 11.

Later on, the US Department of Commerce officially notified TSMC about the 7nm restrictions. Last week, TSMC highlighted that “as a law-abiding company, it is committed to complying with all applicable laws and regulations,” including export control laws.

Samsung Foundry Division also notified its Chinese clients. The company’s semiconductor decision is already in crisis. The latest US restrictions vanish the remaining growth aspect that the Foundry has been securing from its Chinese clients.

Samsung Display plans to boost OLED production in 2025

Samsung Display OLED 2025

Samsung Display is gearing up to boost production in 2025, with plans to increase small and mid-sized OLED panels by 10%. The company aims to expand into new revenue areas by focusing on high-value products like tablets and foldable displays.

In 2025, the company expects to produce 475.6 million small and mid-sized OLED panels, up from 432.2 million this year, according to information.

Samsung Display is the leader in the global market for small-to-medium OLED panels, holding over 50% of the share, so its production goals will bring significant changes to market conditions. The production boost will be particularly focused on IT rigid OLED displays and foldable panels.

The company plans to produce 12.5 million units of IT rigid OLED in 2025, a 56% rise from this year’s 8 million units. It also plans to make 12.5 million foldable displays, a significant 150% increase from 5 million units this year, mainly for the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold series.

Samsung Display OLED 2025

The decision to increase OLED production comes as the global smartphone market slows down, which has been Samsung Display’s main source of revenue. While the company sold more panels than expected this year, growth in high-end smartphones has been slow. To adapt, Samsung is focusing on expanding its business in tablets and foldables.

Samsung Display is also targeting the tablet market as more tablet makers switch from LCD to OLED panels. While its tablet OLED production didn’t meet expectations this year, demand is expected to rise in 2025. Samsung plans to produce 11.25 million tablet OLED panels next year.

However, Samsung Display faces more competition in the OLED supply chain, particularly from Apple. Notably, Apple has started using OLED panels from other companies like LG Display and BOE. As a result, Samsung Display expects its OLED supply volume for Apple to stay steady next year, with little growth expected in its iPhone and iPad orders.
