Jensen Huang, chief executive officer (CEO) of U.S. chip giant Nvidia, is expected to visit Korea this week and meet with the heads of major conglomerates that could pave the way for broader cooperation in artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics, industry sources said Monday.
Following his appearance at the Computex trade show in Taipei, Huang is scheduled to arrive in Seoul on Thursday night and begin a series of meetings Friday, the sources said.
Among those expected to attend the gathering are SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won, LG Group Chairman Koo Kwang-mo and Lee Hae-jin, founder and board chair of Naver, they said. Hyundai Motor Group Executive Chair Chung Euisun is also positively considering taking part in the discussions.
Industry observers say the upcoming talks could move beyond AI semiconductor cooperation to include robotics and physical AI, an emerging field focused on integrating AI with real-world machines and systems.
