Integrated demo lab and office site brings demonstrations, training, and workflow support closer to semiconductor and academic users across APAC.
SEOUL, South Korea, March 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Tescan today announced the official opening of its upgraded Tescan Korea Demo Lab & Office in Seoul, bringing together its relocated Korea office and enhanced demo lab capabilities in one integrated site. The new platform is designed to strengthen customer engagement in Korea and support semiconductor and academic users through demonstrations, training, and workflow discussions.
Korea's semiconductor ecosystem continues to advance around AI-driven memory and advanced packaging. As high-bandwidth memory (HBM) and more complex package architectures scale, teams face increasing pressure to accelerate failure analysis (FA), reliability, and validation workflows while maintaining consistent, decision-ready results.
"APAC remains a key growth region for Tescan, and Korea is a strategic investment focus as the ecosystem scales AI memory capacity, including HBM, and advanced packaging," said Pavel Sustek, Chief Financial Officer, Tescan. "Our upgraded Seoul site is a direct investment in strengthening Tescan's customer-facing platform in Korea and in supporting semiconductor, materials science, and academic users."
The Korea Demo Lab and Office will serve as a regional hub for evaluations, training, and technical discussions, while connecting with Tescan's global Demo Lab network. "By combining office and demo lab functions in one site, we have a stronger platform for customer discussions, workflow validation, and regional engagement," said Sean Lee, Managing Director, APAC, Tescan.
The opening ceremony featured a ribbon-cutting attended by H.E. Ivan Jančárek, Ambassador of the Czech Republic to the Republic of Korea, along with Tescan leadership and representatives from the microscopy community. Attendees included Jong-Seok Yeo, President of the Korea Society of Microscopy (KSM). Their participation reflects the importance of methodology standardization, talent development, and collaboration between industry and academia.

SEOUL, South Korea, April 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- HD Construction Equipment, the intermediary holding company of HD Hyundai's construction equipment business, will be expanding its commitment to nurturing global technical talent in the construction machinery sector by supporting Vietnam's national team for WorldSkills.
HD Construction Equipment announced on Sunday, April 5 that it signed a tripartite Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in Hanoi with the Directorate of Vocational Education and Training, or DVET, under the Vietnamese Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs, and the Central College of Transport No. 1 (CCT1), a local vocational training college. The agreement aims to support Vietnam's participation in the WorldSkills competition.
Under this agreement, HD Construction Equipment will assist with the entire process—from training to competition entry—for the Vietnamese national representative competing in the Heavy Vehicle Maintenance category at WorldSkills Shanghai 2026, scheduled for this September.
The company plans to offer comprehensive technical training to Nguyen Xuan Khanh, who was selected as the national representative last year. Furthermore, the company will cover all expenses related to this training, including airfare, registration fees, and accommodation, in order to create an optimal environment for the competitor to maximize his performance.
In July of last year, HD Construction Equipment signed an MOU with CCT1, which includes the Green and Smart Construction Equipment Talent Project. This initiative is part of the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA)'s inclusive business program. The collaboration aims to support the development of smart equipment in Vietnam and to create localized training curricula.
The company has deepened its commitment to Vietnam through a series of key initiatives, including hosting government officials and instructors for training in October, supporting national skills trials in November, and awarding scholarships.
An official from HD Construction Equipment stated, "This collaboration is not just a one-time event; it is part of our commitment to sustainable, locally integrated business practices. We will continue to foster Vietnam's young technical talents, helping them compete on the global stage."
