[이데일리 배진솔 기자] Vice President Lee Jae-yong pledged to build a healthy industrial ecosystem by attending a ceremony to bring foundry production facilities (semiconductor shipping production) with the presidents of partner companies as the first management step in the new year. It is interpreted as the willingness to coexist with business partners and look across the entire ecosystem to achieve Samsung’s global # 1 system semiconductor.

Vice President Lee Jae-yong, First New Year’s Workplace … Import Ceremony of Pyeongtaek Second Foundry Factory

According to Samsung Electronics, on the 4th, the first business day of the new year, Vice President Lee Jae-yong attended a ceremony to bring the foundry production facilities at Plant 2 in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi-do, with representatives from partner companies. . In addition to Samsung Electronics VP Kim Ki-nam and Foundry Division President Choi Si-young △ President Yonghan Lee △ Vice President Park Kyungsoo △ Vice President Lee Woo-kyung ASML Korea △ Vice President Lee Junhyuk △ President Ji-wan Jung attended the event.

Pyeongtaek Plant 2 is a high-tech complex production line that produces next-generation DRAM, V-NAND, and ultra-thin cast products. After the production of memory semiconductors last year, this year it began to incorporate facilities for the production of foundry.

Vice President Lee △ Construction and operation status of Pyeongtaek 2 line △ Semiconductor investment and employment status △ Here he received reports on joint projects with partner companies, and inspected the dedicated extreme ultraviolet (EUV) line essential to realize ultra-fine semiconductor circuits and built the third plant in Pyeongtaek. They visited the site and encouraged the employees. Vice President Lee said: “Let’s jump to the new Samsung in the new year of 2021. Together, we can open the future,” he said. ” Let’s create a myth in semiconductor systems by cooperating with Samsung Electronics and associated companies, academia and research institutes to create a healthy ecosystem. “

Partners with 40 years of walking with Samsung discuss ways to foster semiconductor ecosystem and mutual cooperationVice President Lee also discussed ways to foster the national semiconductor ecosystem and promote mutual cooperation with representatives of partner companies who attended the import ceremony. The partner companies that attended the event on this day are semiconductor materials and equipment companies that have been with Samsung for more than 40 years and have been reborn as small giants.

In particular, the CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) for the manufacture of semiconductor wafers that was brought to the second Pyeongtaek plant this day is an equipment that has been evaluated as a feat of localization of core technologies through the success of the joint development of Wonik IPS, a partner company, with technical support from Samsung.

The development of partner companies such as Wonik IPS can be seen as representative success stories where the ‘Semiconductor Vision 2030’ and the ‘Building a healthy industrial ecosystem’ revealed by Vice President Lee came to fruition. In the industry, it is evaluated as a great achievement that can reduce the high dependence on foreign materials, parts and equipment, which has been pointed out as a chronic weakness of Korean industry. In addition, it is expected to lead to the expansion of domestic equipment exports.

The beginning of ‘Jaeyong Lee Seungeobu’ … “For our industrial ecosystem to be healthy”

The reason Vice President Lee started this year with Vendor Presidents symbolizes the beginning of the ‘Seungeobu Lee’, which aims to reach the global No. 1 by growing alongside all members of the systems semiconductor ecosystem, including the suppliers.

Vice President Lee said of the decision to drop the Gukjeong Nongdan case on the 30th of last month, “The Seungeobu I dream of should have a greater meaning. We will do everything possible to make our industrial ecosystem healthier through organic cooperation with academia, venture companies and small and medium-sized enterprises. ” Once again, she strengthened her respect and determination for her son, President Lee Kun-hee.

Vice President Lee realized that ‘No. 1 ‘only by Samsung due to the nature of the systems semiconductor industry, and the process of bringing the overall system semiconductor ecosystem to No. 1 is a new way for Samsung Electronics to achieve the No. 1 systems semiconductor of the world. He seems to have presented the “Success Equation.” Consequently, Samsung has △ Joint development of equipment and materials with partner companies △ Expansion of incentives for excellent partners △ Support for technology training and national fabless △ Expansion of design house cooperation △ Foster excellent talent through expansion of cooperation between industry and academia △ National semiconductor system through mutual benefit funds for semiconductors, etc. He is leading the ecosystem development. A trade official said: “As Vice President Lee Jae-yong is directly dealing with win-win growth with suppliers, the development of the systems semiconductor industry will be further accelerated in the future.” said.

In early 2019, Vice President Lee Jae-yong announced ‘Semiconductor Vision 2030’, which aims to achieve the world’s number one system semiconductor by investing 133 trillion won by 2030. To this end, we are supporting not only investment and employment expansion, but also for small and medium-sized enterprises without factories in Korea through △ support for process design △ support for prototype production △ expansion of technology training to enhance competitiveness and foster ecosystem .
