Introducing Hanwha Vision, (formerly Hanwha Techwin), a 2022 ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Champion, as the company has changed its name and is expanding its offerings as a provider of global vision solutions committed to fully supporting the changing needs of customers and partners.
This rebranding comes at a pivotal time in the Hanwha’s history, with the continued success of the company’s established technologies contributing to rapid growth over the past several years.
Now, with the widespread expansion of growth engines which includes Artificial Intelligence (AI), the cloud, as well as thermal imaging, customers are looking for new vision solutions to help them work differently and thrive in constantly changing business environments.
“By building on our core solutions through ongoing innovation, we will continue to alleviate customers’ pain points while adding new value through advanced vision solutions,” explains Soon-hong Ahn, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Hanwha Vision.
“As we expand our business from surveillance monitoring and post-event analysis, we will provide customized information through ‘big data’ analytics and actionable solutions that not only prevent incidents but also respond to them in real-time.”
“Our new vision solutions will be instrumental in advancing customers’ operational strategies.”
Hanwha Vision will continue to develop high-performance products that conduct surveillance monitoring, post-event analysis, and other key security services.
The company is placing a greater emphasis on next-generation vision solutions that contribute to long-term sustainable growth and expansion into high-margin business areas.
“We need to think differently and flexibly adapt to the changing needs of customers and the industry,” added Choonghoon (C.H.) Ha, President at Hanwha Vision America.
“That requires a complete shift in mindset, recognizing that what worked as recently as two years ago may not work today, and certainly not for tomorrow.”
This new Hanwha Vision rebranding will also extend to overseas subsidiaries, products, and solutions.
Hanwha Vision has been an industry leader in global video surveillance with world-class optical design, image processing, and cybersecurity technologies for more than 30 years.
As the company continues to broaden as a global vision solution provider, Hanwha Vision aims to deliver more valuable and meaningful insights to customers by collecting key information and providing big data analytics utilizing AI and cloud technologies.

The pinnacle of the Annual ‘ASTORS’ Awards Program is the Annual ‘ASTORS’ Awards Ceremony Luncheon Banquet, an exclusive, full-course plated meal event, in the heart of New York City.
This year’s exclusive sold-out ‘ASTORS’ luncheon featured representatives of law enforcement, public safety, and industry leaders who came together to honor the selfless service of those who stand on the front lines, and those who stand beside them – providing the capabilities and technologies to create a safer world for generations to come.
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which came out in force, to discuss comprehensive collaborations between private and public sectors that have led to the development of intelligence and technologies which serve to protect our nation.
The continually evolving ‘ASTORS’ Awards Program emphasized the trail of Accomplished Women in Leadership in 2022, as well as the Significance and Positive Impact of Advancing Diversity and Inclusion in our Next Generation of Government and Industry Leaders.
The keynote address was provided by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Office of Field Operations (OFO) Deputy Executive Assistant Commissioner (DEAC) Diane Sabatino, who described the changes to CBP through the tragedy of 9/11 and the relentless commitment to its mission and ongoing investment in the latest technologies and innovations to protect our borders and Homeland.
The resounding theme of the DEAC’s remarks was her pride in the women and men of the CBP and their families who support them.
AST was also joined by Legendary Police Commissioner William Bratton, who spoke, as always, about his love for the City of New York, the Profession of law enforcement to which he has dedicated his life, and for which he continues to drive thought leadership and innovation.

FDNY Chief Joseph Jardin honored the men and women of the FDNY, not only those who currently serve but all of those who have selflessly served, with special recognition of those lost on 9/11.
Chief Jardin spoke about the continuing health battle of many following 9/11 with cancer and respiratory disease, yet now knowing the full consequences, would not have made a different decision to respond.
As Chief Jardin noted, mission-driven service is in the lifeblood of every firefighter, volunteer and sworn and has been so throughout the history of the Fire Service.
