LG Uplus' chief executive officer, Hwang Hyeon Sik, recently visited Silicon Valley in the U.S. for special talent recruitment. The CEO hosted an event at the Four Seasons Hotel to attract young talent for LG Uplus's artificial intelligence (AI) ambitions.
On Monday, April 15, LG Uplus confirmed that its CEO hosted the "2024 LG Uplus AI Visionaries Summit" on Saturday. According to The Korea Herald, the summit's main aim is to entice and recruit new talents in the field of AI.
Selected Guests from Major US Universities
Around 10 doctoral candidates and master's students in major AI fields attended the conference. These students are focused on natural language processing, large language models, and related areas.
The guests were said to have been invited and were handpicked by LG Uplus during a campus tour in the United States earlier this year. They came from universities such as the Georgia Institute of Technology, the University of Illinois, and Stanford University.
Strategic Recruitment Move
LG Uplus's recent summit, spearheaded by CEO Hwang Hyeon Sik, is a strategic move to bolster the company's artificial intelligence (AI) competencies. Through its high-level recruitment drive, the company hopes to achieve its goals in the AI tech field by hiring great young talents.
"LG Uplus has a dream to become a digital innovation platform company that leads changes in customer life," Korea's Maeil Business News quoted the CEO as saying during the summit last weekend. "We believe the most important thing is AI technology that will make customer experience a reality, and above all, people who can make that technology bloom to realize this goal."
Finally, after sharing LG Uplus' business vision centered on AI, Hwang told the audience, "Let us create a future where AI permeates customers' daily lives together with the dreams of you and LG U+."
