Value innovation is by definition product and solution centered. At Samsung, it’s about synergistically lever-
aging our core capabilities and resources and those of our partners to deliver cutting-edge products and solu-
tions that create new categories and set new standards in existing ones.
The “Digital” aspect of our Digital- Company mission focuses on ensuring we’re creating an optimal envi-
ronment for product and solution innovation through our home network, mobile network, office network, and
core components business portfolios. In 2001, we completed the structural realignment of our divisions
into four “business networks”—the Digital Media Network, Telecommunication Network, Digital Appliance
Network, and Device Solution Network. The word
network
in each name underscores the synergistic col-
laboration and resource sharing that’s now happening within each network, between networks, and with strate-
gic partners like Dell, AOL Time Warner, Sony, and Microsoft. These dynamic, value-creating relationships
are quickly proving to be fertile ground for innovations that will dramatically impact how the world lives, works,
and plays in the not-so-distant future.
