We\u2019ve continued to build our footprint not just in the Bay Area but across the U.S. through partnerships with start-ups and established technology companies.<\/p>\n<p>Today, Samsung is in the process of pivoting from solely producing discreet products \u2013 storage, memory, application processors, image sensors and LED components \u2013 to developing seamlessly connected ecosystems. Samsung\u2019s comprehensive product portfolio with state-of-the-art solutions set new standards for data processing speed, capacity, bandwidth and energy conservation.<\/p>\n<p>By leveraging such solutions, our customers are able to configure product solutions based on their requirements and develop exciting new tech offerings for market segments such as 5G, AI, enterprise and hyper-scale data centers, connected vehicles, networking and beyond. We know these emerging and established applications are what will make our dream of a connected world real, and we continue to bet big on our innovation leadership here in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"embedded recommended recommended-post\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"embedded-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"card-badge\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Recommended News<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"recommended-card\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsung.com\/us\/celebrating-forty-years-america\/\" class=\"recommended-news\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.us.news.samsung.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/14121935\/RP-Lobby-Current-Office.jpg\" alt=\"Celebrating Forty Years in America\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"details-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"post-category\">Corporate<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4>Celebrating Forty Years in America<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"article-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"article-body\">\n<p>As the number one U.S. patent holder with 25 percent of our employees dedicated to R&amp;D activities, technological breakthroughs are all in a day\u2019s work for Samsung. It\u2019s a mindset and a belief that faster, smaller, more energy efficient devices such as memory, solid state drives, processors, and sensors are always possible, even when others say it can\u2019t be done.<\/p>\n<p>Over the last four decades, we\u2019ve entered product categories like semiconductors, TVs, phones as the underdog, and have since created new industry standards. We\u2019ve grown from a tiny sales outpost to an employer of more than 20,000 American workers. Today, over 71% of all U.S. households hold at least one Samsung product.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s been the story of Samsung in America. When we set our sights on a goal we don\u2019t stop until we reach it. We think big, we use technology to solve big challenges, and we\u2019ve got big plans for our next 40 years in America.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>December is always an exciting time for Samsung.
