LG'S FIRST LED IPS MONITOR OFFERS PERFECT BRAND OF ADVANCED LED AND IPS

LG’S FIRST LED IPS MONITOR OFFERS PERFECT BRAND OF ADVANCED LED AND IPS

SEOUL, Oct. 5, 2010 – LG Electronics Business Solutions (LG) today introduced its new LED IPS monitors, the IPS1 and IPS6 series, that combine IPS and LED, two technologies in which LG is already an established leader. The IPS1 and IPS6 series boast exceptionally real colour, high uniformity of brightness and truly dazzling picture quality.

“LG has been a pioneer and leader of IPS panel development and we’re excited to have applied this new technology so successfully to our new monitors,” said Brian Kwon, Vice President of LG Business Solutions Company. “With advantages from both of these advanced technologies, LG’s IPS monitors will take the monitor industry in exciting new directions.”

Realistic Colour, Stable Brightness, Brilliantly Vivid

An alchemic convergence of IPS and LED, the new IPS1 and IPS6 monitor series deliver supremely advanced monitor picture quality without any colour shift along with a wide viewing angle. Answering the need for the premium panel of the market, LG’s new LED IPS monitor uses IPS panel instead of TN to overcome the limit of viewing angle and provide a real colour.

As a leader in the emerging IPS technology -– which has been drawing increasing attention for its ability to reduce eye fatigue -– LG has been able to harness all the advantages of IPS and use them in its IPS monitor series. Using premium IPS panels, LG’s IPS1 and IPS6 monitors provide stable colour and a high uniformity of brightness at any viewing angle, making them ideal for editing video and graphics, as well as watching movies or playing games. The IPS6 series also boasts a low GtoG response time difference, meaning viewers will feel less eye fatigue even when watching for long periods.

What’s more, LG’s LED IPS monitors have all the advantages from LG’s original LED monitor technology -– pictures greatly enhanced by a mega contrast ratio, a complete lack of harmful substances, and a significantly slimmer depth than on regular LCD monitors.

At the same time, the IPS1 series boasts enhanced colour accuracy making it the perfect choice for graphic designers.

Energy Efficiency with Premium Design

The new monitors’ advantages continue to stack up with their high energy efficiency, resulting in cuts in energy use of up to 27 percent compared with other models. In recognition of their efficiency, the IPS6 monitors have EnergyStar Certification.

Developed with consumers in mind, the IPS6 series boasts a slim and sleek design, with a depth of just 19.5mm on 20-23 inch screens, that makes it a delight to look at. A gorgeous transparent neck with distinctive colouring and a wine glass shape accentuate the stylish, upscale appearance. And as a final touch, the monitors boast a 3D power knob with an arresting silver-chrome finish.

Specifically designed for the office, the IPS1 series boasts an ergonomic design that makes it ideal for using at work. Its 110mm height-adjustable stand, which can pivot, tilt and swivel, enables users to adjust the direction of the monitor screen to their convenience. Also, with its built-in hidden speakers, the IPS1 takes up the minimum of space on office desks.

A new type of premium monitor with all the advantages of LED and IPS technologies, LG’s brand new IPS1 and IPS6 monitor series will be available from.

LG AND MICROSOFT ENTER INTO STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP: LG NETWORK MONITOR TO ADDRESS NEW COMPUTING SCENARIOS

With Microsoft Windows MultiPoint Server and RemoteFX , LG targets B2B Markets

SEOUL, Sep. 30, 2010 –- LG Electronics (LG) and Microsoft today signed a license agreement to collaborate on the development and marketing of the LG Network Monitor1, a multi computing solution with Windows MultiPoint Server (WMS) and RemoteFX. This signifies an important milestone for the two companies and their joint efforts to advance integrated network monitor solutions in centralized desktop computing environment.

Under the agreement, LG will introduce a new line of Network Monitor with RemoteFX in mid-2011, placing LG at the center of the fast-growing B2B cloud computing market. The strategy will also allow LG to significantly expand its presence into enterprise and mid-markets in order to address customer needs for session virtualization and VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure).

Soon Kwon, President and CEO of LG Electronics Business Solutions Company, said: “With Microsoft’s unrivaled background in OS development and LG’s proven multi computing technology, this collaboration will help LG expand its monitor solutions and position LG as a leader in the business cloud computing market.”

“LG’s support of the Windows platform and continued advancements in their integrated network monitors will drive new computing experiences into enterprises looking at virtualization,” said Steve Guggenheimer, Corporate Vice President of the OEM Division at Microsoft. “We look forward to continued collaboration with LG and the evolution of monitors into centralized computing environments.”

LG’s Network Monitor will use Microsoft’s WMS 2010 which will allow schools to provide more students with individualized Windows experiences at lower total cost of ownership. In addition, LG Network Monitor working with Microsoft WMS 2010 is designed to be simple enough for a teacher without technical skills to set-up and manage student stations. For multilingual needs, each student can also work independently on a Network Monitor connected to a WMS host in a different language.

One of the major sectors for LG’s Network Monitor is education, a market that is expected to grow to 20M units (per seat) by 2015. LG will aggressively pursue opportunities for its Network Monitor using WMS 2010 in the global education solutions market, with a goal of capturing 25 percent of the market by 2012 to become the industry leader.

LG and Microsoft are also teaming up to develop an integrated Network Monitor with RemoteFX functionality. As the RemoteFX platform gains significantly enhanced security and management functions, its use in conjunction with LG’s advanced Network Monitor technology will enable LG to expand its monitor solutions to cloud computing in the enterprise market. Cloud computing is virtual-based computing which allows users to access the exact infrastructure, platform and software services they need via the internet in a market expected to grow 1.2M units by 2012.

LG ANNOUNCES INTENTION TO ENTER WATER TREATMENT BUSINESS

SEOUL, Sep. 16, 2010 –- LG Electronics (LG) announced today that it will enter the water treatment market to help combat global water supply issues. LG will invest more than USD 400 million over the next decade with the goal of generating USD 7 billion in revenue by 2020, in the process becoming a top 10 global water treatment company.

Much of the investment will go toward acquiring the right technology and building up research and development in this field.

“Water affects every aspect of our lives, yet almost one billion people around the world don`t have clean drinking water and more than 2.5 billion still lack the most basic sanitation,” said Young-ha Lee, President and CEO of the LG Electronics Home Appliance Company. “LG hopes to be able to make a small but significant contribution to alleviating this global problem with its commitment to finding solutions through innovation and technology.”

LG will concentrate its R&D on developing an advanced membrane filtration system, its core technology and key component of water treatment solutions. LG will also expand its internal capabilities with the additional hiring of membrane filtration experts and process engineers. The company will also be pursuing various types of partnerships, mergers and acquisitions as part of its strategy to expand quickly.

LG will begin with industrial water treatment and expand its coverage into sewage and drinking water treatment. The company eventually plans to enter the business of water treatment engineering and procurement as well as operation and maintenance across the municipal sector.

“The global water crisis isn’t going to go away by itself – governments, citizens and corporations will all have to work closely together,” said Mr. Lee. “The water business has been growing, but beyond the business, I think this is one problem where LG’s experience and commitment to finding solutions will be a huge advantage.”
