Investment
A critical way that Samsung responds to the highly uncertain business environment and
the increasingly competitive marketplace is through our commitment to R&D Each

Global R&D Network
Innovation is a global enterprise at Samsung. Our research and development network
spans six Samsung centres in Korea and18 more in nineother countries, including
the United States, the United Kingdom, Russia, Israel, India, Japan and China, as well
