Lg Display (Paperback)

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles LG Display is the world's second largest LCD maker, after Samsung Electronics. Currently, the two South Korean companies together exceed 50% of the global LCD market. LG Display is headquartered in Seoul, South Korea. LG Display was originally formed as a joint venture by the Korean electronics company LG Electronics and the Dutch company Koninklijke Philips Electronics in 1999 to manufacture active matrix liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and was formerly known as LG.Philips LCD, but Philips sold off its all shares in late 2008. On December 12th 2008, LG.Philips LCD announced its plan to change its corporate name to LG Display upon receiving approval at the company's annual general meeting of shareholders on February 29. The company claimed the name change reflects the company's business scope expansion and business model diversification, the change in corporate governance following the reduction of Philips' equity stake, and LG's commitment to enhanced responsible management.
