Race Against 'China Tech'

The Statesman Siliguri

|

January 13, 2025

China stands as one of South Korea's most significant trading partners while also emerging as a formidable rival in domains where Korean firms have traditionally excelled in technological prowess and market competitiveness.

This rivalry is vividly on display at this year's CES technology trade show, running from Tuesday to Friday in Las Vegas, where Chinese companies are showcasing their rapid strides in the global technology landscape.

CES, an annual gathering of innovators, is not merely a showcase for Korea's top tech giants such as Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics, it is also a barometer for policymakers, whose inertia in fostering cutting-edge industries risks leaving South Korea behind.

This year, the spotlight falls on artificial intelligence – a transformative force driving productivity, reshaping customer experiences and unlocking new technological breakthroughs.

The AI-focused theme of CES 2025, "Dive In," is set to highlight the progress of China's technology sector, often dubbed "China tech," in comparison to over 160 other participating nations.
