NVIDIA ELITE partner Leaders Systems, led by CEO Lee Bu-seok, participated in the ‘2025 Industrial AI EXPO’, presenting high-performance GPU-based supercomputing systems and industrial digital twin and AI simulation platforms to demonstrate the potential for AI infrastructure innovation in industrial environments.
Since its establishment in 2003, Leaders Systems has been a leading GPU specialist in South Korea in the fields of AI, deep learning, simulation and data centre construction. Based on NVIDIA’s accelerated computing technology, it has established itself as a ‘full-stack AI infrastructure partner’ by supplying comprehensive GPU-optimised platforms, from supercomputers, workstations and GPU virtualisation to visualisation, AI education and cloud research services.
At this exhibition, Leaders Systems created an experiential booth centred on real-world industrial applications, alongside next-generation hardware products incorporating NVIDIA’s latest architecture, enabling visitors to see and experience the physical implementation of AI technology firsthand.
At the centre of the exhibition was the NVIDIA DGX™ B200, a flagship system based on the latest GPU architecture. This next-generation supercomputer supports large-scale AI workloads, including LLMs (large language models), recommendation systems and generative chatbots. On site, its internal components, including the GPUs, boards and cooling system, were actually disassembled to reveal their structure and operating principles. Technology professionals interested in AI performance and parallel processing optimisation continued to visit the exhibit.
The NVIDIA RTX™ PRO 6000 Blackwell series, a high-performance GPU for professional workstations specialised for professional workloads, was also showcased. Equipped with 96GB of GDDR7 memory and the latest Tensor and RT cores, this GPU delivers optimised performance for demanding computing tasks such as high-resolution 3D modelling, real-time simulation and scientific visualisation.
Microsoft showcases the present and future of workplace innovation with generative AI ‘Copilot’

One of the most eye-catching booths at the exhibition was undoubtedly Microsoft. Visitors continually streamed into the large booth, where dozens of tablets were arranged in a long row throughout the event. This interactive space, where people could touch, input information and observe the responses themselves, focused not on simple promotion but on providing a practical user experience of Microsoft’s flagship generative AI solution, ‘Copilot’.
Copilot is Microsoft’s generative AI solution integrated with OpenAI’s ChatGPT technology, and has already been applied across Microsoft 365, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams. The booth was designed so that participants could directly try functions such as drafting emails, generating meeting summaries and analysing Excel data, allowing them to intuitively confirm its usefulness in real workplace settings.
Copilot is more than simply a ‘conversational AI’. Reports indicate that it can increase document creation speed by up to 12%, learn a user’s work style to provide increasingly personalised support, and reduce the time spent on repetitive tasks by more than 20 hours per week. It is also built on Microsoft’s robust security framework and complies with major regulations such as GDPR and HIPAA, making it notable for its ability to be used safely in environments handling sensitive industry data.

Airobot is a company that has continued its research and development with the goal of commercialising and distributing humanoid robots. It has built up its technical expertise by introducing various models, including Alice, Amy and Eddy, and unveiled its next-generation model, ‘Alice 4’, at this Industrial AI EXPO.
The newly unveiled Alice 4 is characterised by precise control and low-noise walking. It adopts legs with a multi-link parallel structure and the SLIP (Spring-Loaded Inverted Pendulum) walking model, enabling stable walking, while its performance is being enhanced with the goal of achieving a walking speed of 3 m/s. It also uses the AI platform ‘Isaac Groot’ to understand natural language and support the performance of various tasks in industrial environments.
At the booth, visitors could play a dice game directly with Alice 4 and experience its vision and speech recognition capabilities. After the game, they received a bottle of water, allowing them to observe the robot’s smooth movements, which attracted considerable attention.
Airobot has implemented precise force control without a reducer by equipping its robots with a self-developed linear actuator. This technology enables delicate actuation through backdrivability and high current sensitivity, while its thermal management design enhances stability and durability. Its low reduction ratio also reduces noise, making it suitable for environments where it works alongside people.
Meanwhile, Airobot is also participating in the expansion of the industrial ecosystem through its involvement in the government-led ‘K-Humanoid Alliance’. Last July, it demonstrated its technological competitiveness by securing Series A investment worth KRW 1 billion.
An Airobot representative said, “Alice 4 is a robot developed to perform practical roles in industrial settings,” adding, “We will continue pursuing innovation that can enable us to lead the humanoid market.”
