Founded in 1998, Tibet System moved from high-speed printing technology to DVR developments in 2000. With Europe being its largest OEM market, the company's own brand mainly sells to the U.S. Positioned as a tech-centric company, Tibet today devotes about 50 percent of the employees to R&D efforts. Despite the global economic crisis, the company enjoyed a 70-percent growth rate in 2009, while expecting 100-percent growth in 2010.

STRATEGIES AND CORE COMPETENCE
H.264 and MPEG-4 embedded DVRs, with a Linux-based operating system, that stream a mixture of real-time D1, half D1 and CIF video are Tibet's forte. The company also offers PC-based DVRs, NVRs and management software with intelligent functions. Compact and aesthetic designs with competitive prices are noticeable in Tibet's products, said Chaewon Yeo, Assistant Manager of Overseas Sales. Good customer services and advanced technologies are the company's additional strength. "We offer door-to-door technical support in Korea and for large overseas companies," Yeo said. "With innovation, great quality and after-sales services, we are confident in maintaining our position."

FUTURE OUTLOOK
Tibet will continue to strengthen its DVR technology and develop IP-based surveillance systems. Management software and intelligent motion detection, alarm notification and remote monitoring will be further developed as well. "Our motto is to offer high-end quality at a lower price. Japan is our next target."
