With world leading chemicals corporations, such as LG Chem and SK chemical and with world market leader in electronic components such as LG Innotech, SDI & others,
Korean industry clusters have excellent industrial expertise in novel material and electronic components development and production
Leading companies are active in Korean clusters to produce novel materials and electronic components
The commercialization of new technology is also well represented in Korean clusters. Samsung and LG are not only producing but also marketing various electronics products. Other small and medium size electronic components and product manufacturers are active as well in Korean industry clusters
