SEOUL — Among the highlights at last week’s Smart Manufacturing and Automation World, or AW 2026, were the 500 exhibitors. The event’s organizers asked me and other international reporters to select three of the most promising candidates for its Global Media Awards.

The criteria included their strength in marketing, potential for market growth, opportunity for investment, and competitiveness.
