South Korea Government Relies on Investment to Boost the Country’s Technological Industry

Samsung announced that it plans to make a series of investments totaling US$ 230 billion over the next 20 years to promote semiconductor chip manufacturing. With this investment, the South Korean company aims to build the largest semiconductor chip factory in the world.

According to Adrenaline, the plan was presented by Samsung this Wednesday (15), in response to increased competitiveness in other countries, such as India and the United States. These countries have begun to offer tax exemptions to attract significant investments in the semiconductor chip industry. Thus, the South Korean government relies on these expenditures to boost the country’s technological industry.

150 Semiconductor Chip Companies Are Expected to Be Attracted by the Investments

According to the current exchange rate, the invested amount is equivalent to about R$ 1.2 trillion and will allow Samsung to fulfill its plan to build five new chip production units. According to the South Korean government, the amount spent will ensure that around 150 new companies from the materials, chip manufacturing equipment, and research sectors are attracted to the country.

About US$ 19.17 Billion Will Be Invested by the South Korean Government in Research and Development

The South Korean government disclosed a private investment model of about 500 trillion South Korean won. The amount can be converted into US$ 383 billion according to the current exchange rate and will serve as support and tax incentives. The goal is to increase competitiveness among high-tech industries in the battery, display, and semiconductor chip sectors to boost the business environment in the country.

Not only will Samsung invest in the sector, but the South Korean government also announced that it will make a total investment of KRW 25 trillion (US$ 19.17 billion). This amount would be directed to support research and development in advanced sectors, such as artificial intelligence. Of the total, KRW 360 billion will be allocated to the development of chip packaging techniques and KRW 100 billion to supply electricity and water to industrial facilities.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

A producer from Santa Catarina started with a poultry farm of just 7,500 birds in 1994 and three decades later manages 21 farms thanks to a simple strategy he learned early on.

More than €600,000 in gold hidden in pots and an “invisible” safe inside an old house turns a small French town into the stage for a discovery that reveals how entire fortunes can remain buried for decades without anyone noticing.

Japan enters the war with the Terra A1 drone priced at $2,000 and turns the math against Putin by taking down swarms of Iranian drones for a fraction of the cost.

Scientists made electrons flow like a frictionless liquid within graphene — the result violated a law of physics that had been in place for over a century by 200 times…

With 635 km, 441 stations, and driverless lines, the Shenzhen metro grows by 30 km per year and becomes a futuristic showcase that costs less than in the West.

Scientists have created a microscopic nanorobot that functions as an invisible cleaner, chasing bacteria with light, transporting microorganisms, and releasing each target at the exact point, in an advancement that could change diagnostics and treatments.
