CamSemi Opens Korea Business Development Office
22 Feb 2010
CamSemi has today strengthened its commitment to the Korean market by opening a dedicated business development and application design centre in the Bundang-GU district of Gyungg-Do, Seoul.
The new office will be instrumental in growing the company’s customer base and sales in Korea and houses meeting rooms and a development laboratory, as well as CamSemi’s recently established local team of application engineers. The office is close to many major CamSemi customers and is being run by Seungjib Hong, who joins as Korea country manager. Seungjib brings more than 26 years’ semiconductor experience into CamSemi including senior sales and application engineering roles with STMicroelectronics, Power Integrations and iWatt, plus a seven year period managing his own Korean sales rep company.
“CamSemi is delighted Seungjib has decided to join to help ramp up our activities and support for Korea. We have been working closely with several customers in the region over the last few years but with our new office and local application engineering team we can now provide an even faster response and improved support for customers in the region,” said John Miller, VP sales at CamSemi.
In addition to opening the new office, CamSemi is now able to provide all key technical support documents in Korean. For further information please email korea@camsemi.com
