Lenovo to Offer SK Telecom Mobile Applications

SK Telecom PR, 11/08/10

Chinese PC and handset manufacturer Lenovo (0992.HK) has signed a memorandum of understanding with Korean mobile operator SK Telecom. Lenovo will embed SK Telecom's T Store mobile application store on its smartphones. The shop will mainly offer popular games and entertainment applications, as well as cultural content such as music and cartoons.

SK Telecom has plans to develop a global content management system that links its T Store platform with Lenovo's platform, making it easy for Korean developers to upload applications at the T Store brand shop and receive real-time download information. Moreover, the company has long-term plans to expand T Store's content distribution platform to a global scale under close cooperation with Lenovo. Additionally, SK Telecom and Lenovo will join hands to exchange content and support development of applications; foster developers by holding conferences; and conduct promotional events taking into account local market conditions. By working together in diverse areas, the two companies aim to boost growth of the developer ecosystems of Korea and China.

As part of the effort, SK Telecom will enable developers to easily create/verify applications optimized for Lenovo's handsets by offering Korean-Chinese translation service and allowing the use of Lenovo's target handsets at its MD Test Center. The company's future plans also include developing a system that enables developers to create applications in many different languages simultaneously.
