LG showcases its Google Cast Hotel TVs at ISE 2025
Riyadh — LG Electronics (LG) is set to unveil its new Google Cast-integrated hotel TVs at Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2025, the international systems integration and audiovisual exhibition taking place in Barcelona, Spain, from February 4-7. Google Cast, Google's technology that lets you stream your favorite entertainment and apps from your phone, tablet or computer right to your TV, enhances the guest experience with LG Hotel TVs by providing secure and convenient access to OTT streaming services. With this user-centric innovation, LG is reinforcing its leadership in the hospitality TV market, which continues to be a key area of focus for the company's fast-growing B2B business.
Starting January 10, LG Hotel TVs running webOS23 or later can now offer the convenience of Google Cast with hotel-specific features. Google Cast for hotel TVs is implemented with network isolation to ensure privacy across hotel rooms. To connect a personal device to an LG Hotel TV and enjoy seamless content streaming, guests simply scan a QR code displayed on the TV screen.* This removes the need for users to input personal information or log into their preferred OTT apps on the TV. Conveniently, the connection remains active throughout the guest's stay. Upon check-out, the connection history is automatically erased, helping to deliver a hassle-free and secure user experience.
LG is expanding its presence in the hospitality market, offering a wide range of innovative, tailormade solutions, including hotel TVs, software, and digital signages. In 2023, LG unveiled the world's first hotel TV with AirPlay – Apple's wireless content-sharing technology – which rolled out globally in 2024. With the addition of Google Cast support, LG's hotel TV became the first in the world to simultaneously offer both AirPlay and Google Cast, providing unparalleled convenience for guests. LG also provides the Pro:Centric management solution for hotel TVs, enabling hotel operators to effortlessly customize content for individual rooms, automatically displayed on screen when guests check in.
'LG Hotel TVs with Google Cast will deliver a seamless entertainment experience for guests' said Tiger Lan, senior director of engineering for multi-device experiences at Google. 'We're excited to see LG's momentum in bringing this seamless casting integration to the hospitality industry, providing travelers with the familiar comforts of home while on the go.'
'Many hotel guests nowadays wish to stream their favorite content from a personal device to their in-room TV,' said Paik Ki-mun, head of Information Display Business of the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. 'With LG Hotel TVs integrating Google Cast, they can enjoy a secure and convenient content-streaming experience, just like they're used to at home. We will continue to strengthen our leadership in the hospitality TV market and enhance our B2B sector strategies.'
LG's booth at ISE 2025 will feature a hotel-focused exhibition space themed 'Transforming Stays into Memorable Hospitality Experiences,' where visitors can experience LG's Hotel TVs with Google Cast firsthand.

Profmed steps in as 1,800 qualified South Africa doctors face job and healthcare crisis
Far too many doctors, after years of study and service, are left without work, income, or even access to healthcare. This is according to Profmed chief executive officer, Craig Comrie. South African statistics alone reflect that, as of early 2025, between 1,500 and 1,800 doctors who completed their community service were unemployed and unable to secure positions in the public health sector – this, despite healthcare facilities reporting vacancy rates of between 5% and 22%. This stands in stark contrast to the country's dire need for medical professionals. South Africa has an average of just 0.31 doctors per 1,000 people – a figure well below the World Health Organization's recommended minimum of one doctor per 1,000. This mismatch highlights a troubling paradox: newly qualified doctors are struggling to find employment in a system that is simultaneously overwhelmed and understaffed. Supporting young professionals To better support young, qualified doctors and dentists under 30 who are unemployed or recently employed, Comrie is proud to announce the company's new initiative: an offering of 12 months of free medical aid to young, qualified doctors and dentists under 30 who are unemployed or recently employed. To qualify, candidates must have completed their community service in the past two years and either be unemployed or have been employed within the last six months. Furthermore, candidates must register on the finDR platform – a Profmed initiative that places young medical professionals in locum or permanent roles across the country, offers mentorship, and connects them with a community of professionals committed to making a difference. 'This is about more than just medical aid,' says Comrie. 'It's about making sure our young healthcare professionals don't fall through the cracks as they take their first steps into a demanding but vital career. 'We've heard from far too many doctors who, after years of study and community service, are left without work, income, or even the ability to access private healthcare. That's unacceptable, and it's something we're stepping in to change. Providing this kind of support is critical as they transition into the medical profession.' Platform gains traction Profmed officially launched the finDR platform in February 2025. The initial rollout of finDR included an offer of six months of free Profmed medical aid to the first 500 doctors who signed up. Since its launch, finDR has seen significant engagement, with over 560 doctors registering within the first week. The platform's intelligent matching system ensures that placements are aligned with doctors' qualifications, locations, and preferences while making it easier for practices to fill staffing gaps and reduce patient waiting times. "With this new campaign, Profmed is expanding its support and doubling down on its commitment to the country's young professionals," Comrie says. "This offer is our way of saying: you matter. Your career matters. And we're here to help you take that next step, securely and with dignity.' However, Comrie cautions that the need for employment among doctors is even greater than Profmed had anticipated: 'The response to finDR has been phenomenal. With this new campaign, Profmed is expanding its support and doubling down on its commitment to the country's young professionals. "Over 800 qualified doctors have already joined the platform, proving how urgently it's needed."
