Here’s an exclusive coverage of Korea technology show in Dallas this week. Even though large Korean companies such as Samsung, LG and Hyundai are well-known all over the world there are many small to medium sized Korean companies which are working hard to establish themselves. This exhibition was part of this effort by these electronic and telecom firms to market their products in US.

The event included an exhibition and a Future of Communications Forum in which SK Telecom, Nokia, AT&T, Sprint, Verizon presented. I attended the exhibition and the talk. I was very impressed by the level of innovation, quality of products and the effort to market their work with high quality presentation material and politeness. In this post I’d like to share some of the interesting products I saw there. In later posts I’ll cover other companies and related topics (such as WiBro) in more details. There will be a separate post about the presentation by SK Telecom on the telecom trends.

You can also contact me for details to know further about my discussions with these company representatives. 

Please stay tuned for more coverage of the exhibition and event.
