Samsung, Ministry of SMEs and Startups provides KRW 30 billion to develop new tech in Korea
For the first time, Samsung has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Ministry of SMEs and Startups at the headquarters of ‘With Wave’, a small and medium-sized company based in Yongin-C, Gyeonggi-do.
Through the agreement, the Ministry of SMEs and Startups and Samsung will provide 15 billion won each and a total of 30 billion won in five years’ live support for small and medium-sized businesses to develop new technologies and localize materials, parts, and equipment. From 2022 to 2026.
Samsung proposes joint technology development to stabilize the supply and demand of network components and to improve the competitiveness of domestic connectors through the localization of connectors.
If the wave succeeds in technological development and localization with financial and technical cooperation with the Ministry of Electronics and SMEs and Startups, it is hoped that it will contribute to the competitiveness of the domestic 5G terminal and base station business.
Based on these successes, Samsung this time decided to extend the business agreement with the Ministry of SMEs and Startups and create a new 30 billion joint development fund. There are also plans to expand the field of assistive technology for the localization of systems semiconductors, AI, robots, bio-health and materials, parts, and equipment.
Since 2008, the Ministry of SMEs and Startups has collaborated with large corporations, medium-sized companies and public institutions to provide joint funding to develop technology or products for SMEs.

LG Innotek is supplying CoF for budget and mid-range Samsung smartphones this year. Despite the CoF supply chain formed by the Korean govt., Stemco still has the upper hand in overall volume and model-specific volume in the Samsung CoF market.
TheElec notes that LG Innotek is not making progress in Samsung smartphones’ CoF (chip-on-film) market. Back in 2021, Korean govt formed a local CoF supply chain, but Japan’s Stemco still has an edge over LG Innotek in the Samsung smartphone CoF market.
As of 2024, LG Innotek and PI Advanced Materials are still supplying CoF and related materials for Samsung’s affordable phones like the Galaxy A5 series. Pay attention, the lower lineup of the Galaxy A series and Galaxy M series uses the CoG method, mounting chips on glass substrates.
LG Innotek’s CoF production line operation rate is expected to reach around 70% this year. Beyond Samsung, LG Innotek supplies smartphone CoFs to Oppo, Vivo, and Xiaomi. Notably, G Innotek’s revenue was 20.6 trillion won last year.

Samsung is expected to hold its next Unpacked event in Paris right before the 2024 Olympics kicks off. The tentative date is July 10, when the company will introduce Galaxy Z Flip 6, Z Fold 6, and Z Fold 6 Ultra. More products including the Watch 7 series and Galaxy Ring are expected.
As the company still has around two months to unveil, there will be further performance improvements. Global consumers might be disappointed as the Exynos is expected to power some units. It might harm some sales but Samsung has to do it to maintain the cost-cutting.
