Samsung is the largest business conglomerate in South Korea. The company was founded in 1938 as a dried-fish trading business, but rapidly diversified and internationalized its business.
We all know it for the flagship smartphone - Samsung Galaxy or its TVs, but Samsung is also building ships, operating theme parks and managing one of the world's biggest life insurance funds.
Samsung wants to tackle the climate change issue by constant innovation. The brand is, for example, accepting the trade-in of your old smartphone, so you can purchase the new cell phone cheaper. This way you can give your old smartphone proper recycling. With new features in products like a dishwasher or a washing machine, Samsung wants to help consumers use less water and less detergent. Though in its TV and audio systems, there are no signs of keeping sustainability in mind.
