Chey Tae-won said SK hynix’s ADR debut broadened funding options as the company plans to double capacity in five years and expand U.S. AI, R&D and Indiana HBM investment.
SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won said artificial intelligence may need about five more years to become far more reliable, a shift he said would raise productivity and widen adoption, while also driving strong long-term demand for memory chips. He said SK hynix plans to double overall capacity over the next five years as AI agents and cache-heavy workloads lift memory demand, though supply may still lag for years. Chey also said SK hynix’s ADR debut expands access to global capital and supports more U.S. investment in AI data centers, AI ventures, research and development centers, the Indiana high-bandwidth memory facility and Memory as a Service initiatives.
