  • LG Electronics has opened new HVAC Academies in Taiwan and Singapore.
  • These academies aim to strengthen its business-to-business (B2B) infrastructure in response to growing urbanization and industrial demand.
  • LG operates about 70 academies globally, training over 30,000 engineers annually.

LG Electronics has expanded its global training network by establishing new Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Academies in Taiwan and Singapore. These facilities, opened recently in Taichung and Singapore respectively, are designed to bolster the company's business-to-business (B2B) infrastructure.

The expansion directly addresses the increasing demand for urban and industrial infrastructure. LG Electronics plans to utilize the new academies to host seminars and engage with regional B2B partners, including installation engineers and air conditioning design consultants. This strategy aims to deepen relationships and enhance market presence in key growth areas.

This initiative is part of LG's broader strategy to increase its global HVAC academy network. The company recently opened a new academy in Poznan, Poland, in May and is actively expanding into emerging markets within the 'Global South,' such as Abidjan, Ivory Coast, and Santiago, Chile. Currently, LG operates approximately 70 academies across more than 40 countries spanning Asia, Europe, North America, and Africa.

These global academies play a crucial role in developing technical expertise. They provide training in HVAC system installation, maintenance, and engineering design, collectively nurturing over 30,000 engineers each year. This continuous development of skilled professionals supports LG's commitment to providing advanced solutions and services worldwide.
