Korea at the CES

Monday, January 7th, 2008

It is hard to not notice that the giant event Consumers Electronic Show (CES)  is taking place right now in glamorous Las Vegas. After a quick search for companies related to Korea I found 150 companies, a rather impressive number at such an international conference. However, when considering how world leading Korea is in fields such as mobile (Broadband and TV), e-sports, electronics (with giants like Samsung, iRiver, LG) and so on you realize that there should be more. I would also like to see more of these international events here in Seoul - a place where you don’t have to spend a lot of time to be impressed by the advanced technology.

Around the corner from my office a new UGC shop has opened with recording materials for video, audio and so on. I receive business cards with the possibility to scan with my cell phone camera and instantly get the contact information accessible in the phone. At the same time I can drive a car on the highway while streaming videos from the net with help from mobile Internet. Yes, I am impressed by all the new cool gadgets at CES but I wish Korean companies were better to market the competitive edge that does exist here and that so many visitors at CES would be interested in.

As a final argument for this I use this BBC news about the technologies on the rise 2008. The web to go (ubiquitous Internet access), Ultra mobile PC’s, IPTV, Wimax and mobile VoIP are considered the ones to keep an eye on this year. In many ways a list of 2006 or 2007 for Korea…

Looking forward to meeting you@

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

 

The mobile and entertainment industries are increasingly merging and next week, from December 5th to 7th, a very interesting mobile and media business conference sponsored by Informa telecoms & media is about to take place in Suntec/Singapore. On Wednesday the “mobile TV Asia Summit” is taking place, followed by the two days event of “Mobile entertainment Media Asia 2007”.

The event is tagged: “Where media meets mobile in Asia”. So it combines two of the most dynamic industries with the most dynamic region.

With South Korea and Japan Asia has the two most sophisticated mobile markets in the world and it also the growth motor of global mobile industry. Hence both events offer the chance to understand this region better as well as to learn and take best practices from the world’s leading. The event is an excellent platform for networking and to make business partnerships which will enhance any Asian market business strategy or benchmarking projects.

The conferences will feature agenda setting keynote sessions, and streams discussing the most exciting industry issues. It’s truly an honor

for me to be selected to chair the “Mobile TV Asia Summit” on Wednesday December 5th. I will be the first to speak with the title, “Accelerating the Uptake of Mobile TV in Asia”. Afterwards I will be moderating the remaining sessions and discussions.

I sincerely hope to meet many of you interested and I look forward discussing with you.
