LG Recognized in the Automotive Category of This Year’s List for Driving
Mobility Innovation With Its Advanced SDV and In-vehicle Technologies
SEOUL, March 19, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG), a global leader in mobility technology, has been named to Fast Company’s The World’s Most Innovative Companies of 2025 list in the automotive category, announced on March 18. This recognition highlights LG’s strong performance and continuing success as a pioneer of software-driven mobility solutions.
Fast Company, one of the world’s preeminent business media brands, has published The World’s Most Innovative Companies list every year since 2008. The list acknowledges organizations that have made a meaningful impact through their commitment to innovation, ranking the top-performing businesses across 58 industry categories.
A trusted mobility partner, LG is making rapid progress in the pursuit of its bold “living space on wheels” business direction, which reimagines the traditional automobile as an intelligent, connected environment. The company’s seamlessly integrated infotainment systems, displays, telematics and AI-powered technologies enhance safety and comfort for drivers and passengers, while also bringing the personalization and convenience of the smart home to the in-car experience.
LG is realizing its futuristic vision through advancements such as the AI-powered in-cabin sensing solution, designed to make vehicles more intuitive and responsive to their occupants’ needs. Employing Vision AI and an array of sensors, LG’s solution monitors the heart rate, facial expressions and attentiveness of the driver and passengers in real time to assess their physical and emotional state. By detecting whether the driver is fatigued, stressed or distracted, and providing appropriate cues or reminders, it can help improve road safety. The company’s sophisticated sensing solution also offers personalized driving routes, real-time traffic updates and smart in-cabin adjustments.
Being named to Fast Company’s The World’s Most Innovative Companies list follows a year of major successes for the LG Vehicle Solution (VS) Company. In 2024, LG introduced a cross-domain platform integrating Advanced Driver Assistance System, Automated Driving and In-Vehicle Infotainment systems to provide a flexible, cost-effective solution for OEMs. It also expanded its webOS-powered Automotive Content Platform to give vehicle passengers more immersive entertainment options. Additionally, the company launched LG AlphaWare, a comprehensive suite of software for software-defined vehicles (SDVs), and earned global recognition for the security and safety of its V2X technology.
“We are honored to be included in Fast Company’s list of The World’s Most Innovative Companies of 2025,” said Eun Seok-hyun, president of the LG VS Company. “As a leading driver of future mobility innovation, we will continue to create cutting-edge SDV technologies and AI-powered solutions that transform the in-vehicle experience and improve road safety.”

Question
Questor
Question: Why does LG's website say I should check this forum to see if 3rd Party Bluetooth Headsets with work completely and correctly with LG sound sync and WebOS, when LG has not or will not publish a list of which 3rd Party Bluetooth Headsets are tested as compatible with specific LG TV models?
We recently purchased an LG 55UM7300PUA (2019) TV and have a question about which 3rd Party Bluetooth Headsets that are compatible with LG sound sync and WebOS... My wife wants to listen to our 55UM7300PUA TV through a set of Bluetooth Headphones while the TV Internal Speakers are turned off...
It seems that LG's USA website needs to be updated because LG's search results about our 55UM7300PUA model seem incomplete. The LG Tech Support website does not list the 55UM7300PUA as a TV nor Smart TV product and no 55UM7300PUA or 55UM73 manual is listed in search results. I finally found the Owners Manual for our 55UM7300PUA through a Google search, but this PDF Owners Manual I downloaded does not say if our 55UM7300PUA supports LG sound sync or which manufacturer/models of Bluetooth Headsets .
I am disappointed by a lack of technical support from LG in past forum discussions regarding which 3rd Party Bluetooth Headsets with work completely and correctly with LG sound sync and WebOS. LG Technical Support is forcing customers like me to buy Bluetooth Headsets at our expense, they ask us to do their testing with a lack of specific 55UM7300PUA documentation, and they direct us to "refer to headset model names in user guide" that are not simply listed.
Does our 55UM7300PUA support the use of Bluetooth Headphones and is "LG sound sync" required for use with Bluetooth Headphones? Why should we have to test 3rd party Headsets at our expense when LG Tech Support should specifiy which OEM and 3rd party Headsets work with which LG TV models?
