Samsung's revenue was equal to 22.4% of South Korea's $1.67 trillion GDP in 2022. "You can even say the Samsung chairman is more powerful than the President of South Korea. Hyundai Group is a South Korean conglomerate founded by Chung Ju-yung. The group was founded in 1947 as a construction company. With government assistance, Chung and his family members rapidly expanded into various industries, eventually becoming South Korea's second biggest company after SAMSUNG.

Over the past two decades, Samsung has transitioned from a period of explosive growth, marked by an average annual growth rate of 17.6% between 1998 and 2013, to a much slower pace of 1.25% from 2013 to 2023. This significant deceleration suggests that Samsung, once a key driver of South Korea's economic expansion, may be entering a more mature and potentially stagnant phase. As of 2023, Samsung contributed approximately 20% to South Korea's GDP, highlighting its immense influence on the nation's economy. However, the slowdown raises concerns about the future of South Korea's economy, which has heavily relied on conglomerates like Samsung for growth and innovation. Without the emergence of new, dynamic companies to drive the next wave of economic expansion, South Korea risks facing a murky future characterized by slower growth, reduced global competitiveness, and potential economic stagnation. The challenge lies in fostering a new generation of innovative companies that can replicate Samsung's past successes and ensure continued economic vitality for the nation. #Samsung #SouthKorea #EconomicGrowth #Innovation #BusinessStrategy #MarketSaturation #FutureOfTech #GlobalCompetitiveness #EconomicStagnation #KoreanEconomy

Discovering Samsung Electronics: A Journey Through Time! 📱🌐 Ever wondered how #Samsung came to be? The story unfolds in South Korea back in 1938 when it was founded by Lee Byung-chul Hailing from a wealthy landowning family, Lee initiated Samsung as a small trading company, dealing in #groceries, #noodles, and local products. During the #Korean War, Samsung lost all its assets, but Lee Byung-chul revived the #business in Seoul, shifting the focus to textiles. By the late '60s, Samsung took a monumental leap into the world of electronics, marking a pivotal moment that led to the establishment of Samsung Electronics in 1969. Interestingly, their initial venture was manufacturing black-and-white televisions. From these humble beginnings, Samsung Electronics evolved into a global technology powerhouse. Over the next decade, Samsung expanded into diverse industries, including construction, life insurance, and retail.

Samsung's massive investments since 2008 have made it Vietnam's largest investor, with a significant portion of its global production based there. Similarly, Apple's strategic shift to Indian manufacturing has not only boosted its market share but also significantly increased its export value.

Samsung is 20% of the South Korean GDP! 1/5th of a country is just one company! This is not rare; this is unheard of! To give you perspective, Samsung’s current head, Lee Jae-yong, and previously his father, Lee Kun-hee was jailed but was given a presidential pardon! Why? According to the government, to SAVE the South Korean economy! This centrality trickles down in Korean lifestyle as well. Getting a job in Samsung is an average Korean's dream! Need a phone? Samsung Need an Insurance? Samsung Need a vacation? Samsung Yup, they own ferry and theme parks as well!

TECH JOURNEY::DAY 9 From Humble Beginnings to Technological Giants: The Samsung Success Story! Once upon a time in South Korea, there lived a young boy named Lee Byung-chul. Despite facing many struggles during a time of Japanese colonization, Lee's family owned land and he had the privilege of receiving an education. After starting his own grocery trading company called Samsung, Lee's business thrived by meeting the increasing demand for essential goods during World War II. As Lee's success grew, he diversified Samsung into various products, from sugar refineries to electronics. Despite facing challenges and disputes with his partner, Lee's determination never wavered. He focused on helping Korea industrialize rapidly, positioning Samsung as a leading conglomerate. In 1969, Samsung entered the electronics sector, marking the beginning of its journey towards technological innovation. Despite initial setbacks, including struggles in the mobile phone market, Samsung persevered. With visionary leadership from Lee's son, Lee Kun-hee, Samsung shifted its focus to cutting-edge technology. Through dedication and innovation, Samsung overcame obstacles and emerged as a global leader in consumer electronics. From the groundbreaking Galaxy series to advancements in AI and 5G technology, Samsung continues to shape the future of technology. "Every setback is an opportunity for a great comeback. Believe in your vision, persevere through challenges, and let your determination guide you to success." #SamsungSuccess #InnovationStory #FromHumbleBeginnings #TechGiant #PerseverancePaysOff #InspiringLeadership #OvercomingObstacles #BelieveInYourVision #GreatComeback #Motivation

Everything about the Xiaomi Technology SU7 is impressive. From the Tesla gigacasting style major parts, to the in-house designed motors and battery tech. The marriage of power, acceleration and range with affordable price. Aftermarket user options for adding physical buttons for example are unique. And a grown up clean design look too that earnt much praise from Chris B. But nothing impresses like 10k units rolling off the production line in the first month. That is mind blowing and more than Rivian, Lucid and Fisker managed in their first year of production. It's also more than GMs EV output in the 1st quarter of 2022! It took Tesla almost a year to reach those numbers with the Model S. Even production hell with the Model 3 didn't yield 10k in the first month. And Xiaomi is a 1st time car OEM! As an engineer there is a massive story to tell behind the insane levels of planning that must have gone into achieving this manufacturing prowess! Prior to this the only wheels were on a consumer electric scooter. Their product mix, with electric shavers, a few household appliances, a laptop or two and their much respected mainstay business of top notch design and performance smartphones (I've owned two in the past). Xiaomi is literally the Apple of China and from the outset in 2010, it set itself this moniker out of choice. From the phones, to the stores and product launches. Except they succeeded building an EV where Apple spent years and billions on Project Titan before scrapping it. My only one bone of contention with the SU7 is the fastback look, but a tiny sedan boot reality. I know it's cheaper and easier option to make, but my goodness why reduce ownership user options. Anyway, shouldn't distract from the huge kudos

Bloomberg [excerpt]: #Apple Inc. supplier #Luxshare Precision Industry Co. is more than doubling its investment in #Vietnam’s northern Bac Giang province to a half-billion dollars as the AirPods maker and other gadget manufacturers further diversify #manufacturing away from #China. The company is increasing its Bac Giang investment by $330 million to a total of $504 million through its Vietnam unit Luxshare-ICT, the province’s industrial zones authority said on its website. Vietnam is among the winners as the Cupertino, California-based company’s network of producers increasingly crisscrosses the developing world amid growing tensions between the US and China. Vietnam has seen a fourfold increase in companies assembling Apple products over the past decade. The Bac Giang industrial zones authority granted the revised investment license to Luxshare-ICT on Nov. 6 and the new production facility is expected to be completed in 12 to 24 months, according to the website post. AirPods orders are dominated by Luxshare and fellow Chinese firm GoerTek Inc., which also has operations in north Vietnam. Luxshare’s new Bac Giang facility will make cables for smart devices, equipment digitizing voice signals, communications equipment, touch pens, walkie-talkies, smart positioning tags and smartwatches, the industrial authority said. The new 290,000-square-meter complex will employ tens of thousands of workers, according to the provincial government’s publication Bao Bac Giang. #news #geopolitics #business

In terms of companies to watch today, we have GuocoLand. Its joint venture with Hong Leong Holdings is the sole bidder for an Upper Thomson Road plot in the latest state tender that closed yesterday. Elsewhere, from Samsung Electronics expecting a 10-fold rise in Q1 profit to Elon Musk now giving out the coveted blue checkmarks to users on social media X for free, more corporate and international headlines remain in focus.

We need to stop saying, “Indian consumers are not loyal.” If you don’t deliver the right product or service, consumers are ready to switch and this isn't unique to India. Globally, no brand is spared. Consumers moved on from giants like Blackberry, Sony, Kodak and Nokia the moment better technology and services became available. So, it's not about the Indian consumer. It’s about consumers everywhere. #consumerinsights

Tata's bid to buy a 51% stake in Vivo India hits a snag due to objections from Apple. Apple's refusal likely stems from several strategic and business concerns: 1, Tata's acquisition could increase competition for Apple, which is already contending with other major players like Samsung and Xiaomi in this critical market. 2, A deeper integration of Tata with a direct competitor like Vivo could create conflicts or complications in sourcing and manufacturing arrangements, which is not good for Apple's SCM in the future. 3, A tie-up between Tata and Vivo could blur market perceptions, potentially impacting Apple's brand positioning in a market where differentiation is crucial. 4, The Indian government's push for localization and 'Indianisation' of operations adds another layer of complexity. Apple, which has been working to expand its footprint in India by increasing local manufacturing, might see Tata's move as a disruptive force that could complicate these efforts. 5, Apple's investment strategies and financial interests may not align with supporting a competitor's growth, especially in a significant market like India where they have been focusing substantial resources.
