Samsung Nations Cup Series In April 2001, we extend-
ed our title sponsorship of the Samsung Nations Cup
Series—one of the world’s oldest and most prestigious
equestrian events—for a third three-year period run-
ning from 2003 through 2005. While the final league
standings after Round 26 showed Germany in first fol-
lowed by Ireland and France, the 2000/2001 World Final
held in September in Madrid was won in a thrilling fin-
ish by Holland, its first win of the year.
Samsung Running Festival Started in Hungary back
in 1995 as part of a 5th anniversary celebration for
Samsung Electronics Magyar Rt., the Samsung Running
Festival has become one of Central Europe’s largest
sporting events. In 2001, the 5-km fun run in Moscow
attracted over 50,000 participants of all ages.
World Cyber Games Our sponsorship of the World
Cyber Games reflects the global impact e-sports are
having on the digital entertainment culture of the 21st
century. In 2001, preliminary national competitions for the
1st WCG in six of the world’s most popular computer
games narrowed the field from over 1 million to about 400
gamers. Representing 37 countries, the finalists con-
verged on Seoul in early December to compete for
US$300,000 in prize money at the first Grand Final where
Korea, China, and Germany topped the medal standings.
