Resignation of Gyeongnam Robot Land Foundation Director ... Jeon Byeongjo, Former KB Securities CEO, Appointed Acting Director

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kang Woo-kwon] The Gyeongnam Robot Land Foundation (Chairman Kim Kyung-soo, Governor of Gyeongnam Province) announced on the 17th that it accepted the resignation letter of Jeong Chang-won, Director of Gyeongnam Robot Land, on the 16th and plans to begin the recruitment process for appointing a new director.

Director Jeong was the first employee from a provincial government-funded institution to be appointed as head of the institution in October 2018 but stepped down before completing his two-year term.

The appointment of the new director will follow the foundation's articles of association by forming a director recommendation committee, issuing a recruitment announcement, conducting document and interview evaluations, collecting opinions from residents, and undergoing personnel verification by the provincial council, after which the chairman, the governor, will make the appointment.

Until the new director is appointed, the foundation designated Jeon Byung-jo, former CEO of KB Securities and advisor for the activation of Gyeongnam Robot Land (pictured), as acting director.

Acting Director Jeon Byung-jo, a former official of the Ministry of Finance and Economy, is an expert in finance-related fields such as private investment projects and project financing (PF), and has been providing financial advice for the normal operation of Robot Land since last December.
