, Samsung Electronics vice-chairman and heir apparent, Lee Jae-yong, visited Samsung Research, the company’s R&D hub, in Seoul today. According to media reports, the purpose of the visit was to discuss the company’s strategy on future technologies amid rising uncertainties.

Lee reportedly discussed developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI), Augmented Reality (AR), robots, displays, and more with senior executives who accompanied him during the visit. “Today’s Samsung was an impossible future in the past.

We have to prepare thoroughly and keep challenging.”
