The Golden Jubilee of IEEE Seoul Section/2025 HMPC Annual Meeting
The IEEE Seoul Section was formed as the IEEE Korea Section on 26 February 1976. Since its establishment, the IEEE Seoul Section has not only played a leading role in advancing Korea’s cognitive AI semiconductor technologies, but has also left a profound impact on Korea and the global community as a One IEEE member by successfully achieving the world’s first commercialization of CDMA technology. Through the IEEE Milestone Award, this achievement firmly established its global presence while exemplifying IEEE’s goal of “Advancing Technology for Humanity.”
Please join us now to celebrate and jubilate the 50th Anniversary of IEEE Seoul Section on 26 February, 2026.

Safe AI Ecosystem for Successful AI Transformation and Sustainable Growth
Why AI Safety Matters Now
The keynote talk opens by framing AI safety as a foundational requirement for long‑term innovation. It highlights the shift from voluntary ethics guidelines to binding laws and institutions, driven by the growing societal impact of advanced AI systems.
From Ethics to Regulation: The Global Policy Landscape
Audience is invited to explore real‑world safety challenges such as hallucinations, misuse, and loss of control, and why technical progress alone is insufficient without structured evaluation and governance mechanisms.
Safety as an Enabler of Growth
The talk concludes with a forward‑looking discussion on how AI safety can serve as a strategic advantage—supporting trustworthy AI transformation, public trust, and sustainable global growth.
