[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Min-young] Hoban Group announced on the 24th that it held the 'Safe Digital Door Lock Donation Ceremony' with the Seoul Metropolitan Government at Seoul City Hall.

The ceremony was attended by Kim Eui-seung, First Deputy Mayor of Seoul, Kim Dae-heon, President of Planning at Hoban Group, and other officials from both sides.

The safe digital door locks are scheduled to be provided to 150 victims of stalking, dating violence, and residential intrusion crimes. The selection of recipients will be conducted through cooperation between the Seoul Metropolitan Government and the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency.

The digital door locks donated by Hoban Group this time are products of the startup Raonak. Unlike existing products that lock a few seconds after the door is closed, these locks engage immediately upon closing the front door. Hoban Group discovers and collaborates with ventures, small and medium enterprises, and startups possessing new technologies. To this end, Hoban holds the annual 'Hoban Innovation Technology Contest,' and Raonak won the grand prize in last year's contest.

Kim Dae-heon, President of Planning at Hoban Group, said, "We hope the safe digital door locks will contribute to Seoul's safety policies, such as crime prevention for single-person households," adding, "Hoban Group, including Hoban Construction, will continue to strive to create a healthy and safe residential environment."
