[Asia Economy Reporter Dongwoo Lee] LS Group announced on the 7th that Chairman Koo Ja-yeol emphasized adventurous leadership for strengthening global business to the newly appointed executives.

At a dinner with 14 newly promoted executives held the previous day at LS Yongsan Tower, Chairman Koo said, "Looking at the profiles of the new executives, I am pleased to see that the seeds of global management and global talent that have been planted in the group are gradually bearing fruit."

He emphasized, "The sustainable future of LS lies in the global market, and the new executives here must become adventurous leaders who take the lead in finding the keys to success in the global market."

In fact, among this year's newly promoted executives of LS Group, many are responsible for overseas business in each company, including the head of LS Cable & System's India branch, head of the global submarine sales division, head of overseas sales at E1, and head of the trading division.

Earlier, in his New Year's address this year, Chairman Koo urged that the first key goal to achieve was to thoroughly localize the organization and personnel of global business and improve the operational efficiency of overseas business.

Accordingly, each affiliate is also taking steps: LS Cable & System announced the '2030 Global Vision,' emphasizing balanced growth worldwide beyond Asia. LS Industrial Systems established a 'Global Business Headquarters' within the organization to seek new opportunities overseas, aiming to enter North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia, betting the group's future on pioneering overseas markets.
