SYSMATE (CEO Jung Jong-kyun) is exporting DIDs that are worth about $100,000 to Iran and it will be able to find more foreign markets by doing so.
DID is an acronym for Digital Information Display and is used along with digital signage. A product that is somewhat of a small size is called DID while digital signage indicates larger scale of size such as outdoor billboards.
“We exchanged MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) with a company Iran at ‘Boom-Up Korea’, which is an export conference that was held by KOTRA recently, and we will be able to receive purchase orders from Iranian company in this month.” said CEO Jung Jong-kyun. “Our strength is to respond to our customers’ demands quickly and flexibly by manufacturing DID driving solution and DID hardware together.”
SYSMATE was established in 2009 based on a business that develops web systems. After working with systems such as homepage of beverage brands, it jumped into manufacturing HW after receiving inquiries for solutions regarding DID.
“We provide a solution that can operate many DID products that are installed at many places at a single place and we also do maintenance work on them.” said CEO Jung. “Our sales are increasing by 150% every year.”
