SEOUL, Oct. 19 (Korea Bizwire) — SK hynix Inc., SK Innovation Co. and SK Telecom Co., the three major companies that fall under the corporate umbrella of the SK Group, will be setting up a joint booth at the upcoming 2019 International CES to be held early next year in Las Vegas, Nevada.
CES is one of the largest international consumer electronics shows in the world.
Although SK Telecom previously participated in the event in 2015, this marks the first time that SK’s three major subsidiaries will be setting up a joint booth at the venue.
The joint booth will be set up at the venue’s North Hall, where most global automobile companies will be setting up their exhibits.
SK Group is gearing up to show off its technology and solutions relating to automobiles after designating transportation as a key area of business earlier in the year.
For example, SK hynix will exhibit its semiconductors used for car production, SK Innovation will showcase batteries for electric cars, and SK Telecom is expected to show off IoT and 5G technology.
Experts are now speculating on whether Chey Tae-won, the chairman of SK Corporation, will be present at CES for the first time.
