[Notice] Meet the Innovative Companies Leading South Korea to Become a Top Three AI Power

"Asia AI Awards" on the 5th of next month

This year, South Korea has set out to drive an AI transformation in everyday life, aiming to become one of the world’s top three AI powers.

AI is now both a driver of industrial innovation and an essential tool that has become deeply woven into our daily lives. For the past four years, The Asia Business Daily has identified and encouraged domestic AI companies that promote AI technology development and digital innovation through its “AI Revolution” series.

This year, we will hold the awards ceremony for the 4th 2026 Asia AI Awards at 3 p.m. on November 5 at the Korea Press Center in Jung-gu, Seoul. We will select 10 outstanding companies, including large corporations, small and medium-sized enterprises, and startups, that have contributed to the AI transformation in everyday life, and present awards including the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Science and ICT Award and the Minister of SMEs and Startups Award. The judging panel, comprising five IT experts from industry, academia, and research, will select the winning companies through a fair assessment based on a range of criteria, including technological capabilities, innovation, security, and social contribution. We invite outstanding domestic AI companies whose work can lay the groundwork for South Korea to become one of the world’s top three AI powers to take an active interest and participate.
