ZKTeco Showcases Next-Gen Biometric Solutions at Korea Conference

Introduction

ZKTeco, a global leader in biometric security and access control, hosted a New Product Launch Conference in Seoul, South Korea on September 18, 2025. The seminar-style event took place at the Yangjae L Tower Spotime hall and gathered industry partners, clients, and security professionals. In his opening remarks, Mr. Lee Kyu-hwan, CEO of ZKTeco Korea, expressed excitement about officially launching ZKTeco’s latest security solutions in the Korean market, stating that these innovations will “revolutionize the industry and provide significant benefits to our partners and clients.” The conference served as a platform for ZKTeco to promote its cutting-edge technologies and strengthen cooperation with regional partners in line with its global expansion strategy.

Highlighted Technologies and the SpeedFace Series

A focal point of the event was ZKTeco’s new multi-biometric access control terminal and the SpeedFace series of facial recognition devices. The SpeedFace series – known for its fast, touchless verification – was showcased to demonstrate advanced face, fingerprint, and palm recognition capabilities for secure and convenient access control. Multi-modal biometric solutions were front and center, underscoring how ZKTeco has integrated facial, fingerprint, vein, and RFID identification into unified devices for enhanced security. Attendees were introduced to a range of the latest products, including flagship biometric terminals, smart door controllers, and entrance control systems. Live demonstrations allowed guests to experience the high speed (sub-second) recognition and anti-spoofing features of the devices, even under challenging conditions (e.g. recognizing faces with masks or under varied lighting). ZKTeco’s U.S. subsidiary brand “Armatura” was also highlighted, with its newest offerings on display – signaling a broad portfolio from door locks to enterprise access solutions. The technical team provided in-depth explanations of each solution’s features, such as cloud connectivity and AI integration, giving partners a comprehensive understanding of the products’ advantages.

Market Expansion and Internal Developments

Beyond product showcases, ZKTeco’s leadership outlined the company’s market expansion plans and internal updates aimed at better serving regional and global customers. Mr. Lee and other executives emphasized a commitment to expanding ZKTeco’s presence in Korea and internationally through localized engagement and innovation. The company’s business direction was presented in four key areas – sales growth, local capacity building, certification, and marketing – to drive its next phase of growth. Notably, ZKTeco has invested in local infrastructure, including plans for a Korean manufacturing facility and the pursuit of domestic security certifications (such as the GS certification), to tailor its products to local requirements and standards. These internal developments ensure that ZKTeco’s solutions are not only technologically advanced but also compliant and optimized for the Korean market, paving the way for entry into sensitive sectors like government and public projects.

The leadership also highlighted how emerging technologies like cloud computing, big data, and IoT are influencing security and how ZKTeco is leveraging these trends. By incorporating cloud platforms and AI-driven analytics, ZKTeco aims to provide smarter, interconnected security ecosystems. This forward-looking approach will help position ZKTeco as a leader in the physical security industry, capable of delivering comprehensive solutions that scale with modern smart buildings and cities. The focus on technology convergence and platform development is an internal update that reflects ZKTeco’s vision of “fusion and connectivity” – integrating multiple systems (entrance control, surveillance, time attendance, etc.) into one seamless platform for end-users. Such integration was exemplified by a new cloud-based advertising and visitor management solution introduced at the event, showing ZKTeco’s drive to innovate beyond traditional access control.

Partner Engagement and Conclusion

Throughout the conference, partner engagement was a key theme. ZKTeco invited feedback and actively engaged with attendees via Q&A sessions and hands-on product trials. The event culminated with a partner recognition ceremony, where ZKTeco honored several outstanding distributor and integrator partners for their contributions. This gesture of appreciation underlined the company’s belief that success is a shared journey – “Together with our partners, we build a safer and more connected world.” The seminar not only showcased products but also facilitated networking, knowledge exchange, and direct dialogue between ZKTeco’s technical experts and the partner community.

In conclusion, the 2025 ZKTeco New Product Launch Conference in Korea was a resounding success. It demonstrated ZKTeco’s latest technological advancements – from the high-speed SpeedFace biometric series to integrated security platforms – and reinforced the company’s strategic commitment to market expansion and continuous innovation. By combining technical excellence with localized strategy and partner collaboration, ZKTeco is well-positioned to expand its global footprint. The company looks forward to leveraging insights from this event to better support all its partners worldwide, ensuring that state-of-the-art biometric security solutions reach every corner of the market. ZKTeco will continue to drive innovation in the security industry and strengthen its partnerships, solidifying its role as a trusted leader in biometric and physical security solutions.
