The event was attended by Chairman Yoon Jaeho, Ryu Ilgon, Head of Samsung Electronics Gumi Support Center, National Assembly members Ku Jakob and Kang Myunggu, Gumi Deputy Mayor Jeong Sunghyun, Gumi City Council Chairman Kang Seungsu, as well as around 220 businesspeople and citizens.


This event went beyond simply celebrating a new product launch; it was organized as a venue to share future growth strategies for Samsung Electronics and Gumi, spanning from smartphones to AI and robotics. Attendees reaffirmed their commitment to joint development between Samsung and the local community through the 'Galaxy Ambassador' performance.


In the special lecture that followed, Professor Yoon Jongyeong of the College of Software Convergence at Kookmin University delivered a keynote entitled 'Next Wave: Technology Trends Led by Mobile and AI, and the City at the Center, Gumi', presenting changes in the industrial landscape in the era of artificial intelligence and Gumi's future competitiveness.


Yoon Jaeho, Chairman of the Gumi Chamber of Commerce and Industry, stated, "The success of Galaxy is not only a source of pride for Gumi's industry, but also a key driver of the regional economy. Building on Samsung's investment and manufacturing competitiveness in Gumi, which continues from 'Anycall' to 'Galaxy', we should maximize the trickle-down effect on the local economy by extending investments from physical AI and robotics to other future industries."



This event reaffirmed that Galaxy is not just a smartphone, but a symbol connecting the present of Gumi's manufacturing sector with the future of its AI and robotics industry.
