Hyundai Elevator Hosts Global CoP Knowledge Conference in the Metaverse

Hyundai Elevator announced that it held a knowledge conference on the 23rd to share the research activities of its in-house autonomous learning organization, the global Cop (Community of Practice), with domestic and overseas employees on the metaverse platform 'ZEP'.

After relocating its headquarters to Chungju last year and declaring a vision to enter the global top 5 by 2030, Hyundai Elevator is promoting talent development with a goal of achieving 50% overseas sales. The global CoP, which has been ongoing since 2018, is a program aimed at strengthening employees' globalization capabilities.

Participants shared research results on the elevator and construction markets, real estate policies, and consumer trends in major countries including China, the world's largest market, Indonesia, which is promoting the construction of a new capital, and key countries of entry such as T?rkiye, India, Vietnam, and Malaysia, thereby enhancing employees' cross-cultural understanding.

Han Young-cheon, head of Hyundai Elevator's Global HR Team, said, "This year, we plan to expand to nine countries by adding major countries such as Saudi Arabia, which is promoting the NEOM City project, as well as the Philippines and Poland."

The metaverse is a compound word of 'Meta,' meaning 'virtual,' and 'Universe,' meaning 'real world.' It is a virtual space created to allow avatars to engage in various social and cultural activities online. Overseas corporation expatriates and local employees can participate without time or space constraints, directly introduce local cultures, and communicate in real time with headquarters employees to share information.
