Innovation Leader and a Citizen of the World
Samsung is constantly working toward a better tomorrow and to remain Asia’s top brand. Addressing evolving consumers’ needs and wants is essential in helping Samsung pave the way as a forerunner of the industry, with community engagement being an integral part of maintaining the rapport Samsung has with the communities it is involved in.
- A Leader in Innovation
Every year, Samsung invests around US$14 billion in Research & Development to ensure that they are at the cutting edge of innovation. More than a fifth of their staff works in R&D and this dedication allows Samsung to remain at the top of their game, with their recent launches (listed below) reflecting the unwavering pursuit of excellence Samsung pursues.

- Samsung QLED TV 2018
Samsung unveils the 2018 series of its flagship QLED TV models at the company’s First Look in New York event. With groundbreaking design elements, enhanced picture quality, and intuitive smart capabilities, Samsung’s 2018 QLED line empowers consumers to enjoy content without distractions – even when viewers are not actively watching.
- Citizenship Initiatives to Give Back to the Community
By harnessing its global network and innovations, Samsung wants to contribute to society and firmly embed themselves within the communities in which the company operates in. Samsung measures success not only by business achievements, but also by how well they serve and improve these communities.
In Southeast Asia & Oceania, Samsung creates social value by lending their expertise and supplying technologies to communities in need. Believing that education is the seed of innovation, Samsung is helping students take advantage of a smarter approach to education. By collaborating with government agencies, local non-governmental organizations and vocational institutions, Samsung has established more than 170 Smart Schools and 26 Tech Institutes across the region. These programs give students an enhanced learning environment with technology, and provide relevant skills-based training.
