Hwang Chang-gyu, head of Ministry of Knowledge Economy’s Strategic R&D Planning office, has been chosen as one of the three speakers for a conference to be held during German IT exhibition CeBIT from March 1 to 5, the organizers of the event said Monday.
The former Samsung Electronics chief, who was appointed to the government post early last year, is the first Korean to give a speech at one of the event’s global conferences. The conferences are held from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. every day during the exhibition.
Hwang’s speech, scheduled for a 30-minute slot on March 1, will discuss the topic of “CT solutions for a better world,” the organizers said.
