HanmiGlobal, launched in 1996, celebrated its 27th anniversary on the 18th. On this day, Chairman Kim said, "We are currently in a 'reset moment' where digital technology resets everything," explaining, "Generative artificial intelligence (AI) technology, represented by ChatGPT, is shaking up existing business ecosystems, and various digital technologies such as the metaverse, augmented reality (AR), and robots are being introduced into the construction industry."


He added, "Our company must actively embrace these technologies to improve work methods and processes, develop new solutions to advance business models, and enhance customer experience," emphasizing, "Especially in difficult times, we must prepare for the future through change and innovation and not neglect investment."


He went on to say that the company must have the ability to flexibly respond and adjust to uncertainties and changes in the management environment. Chairman Kim stated, "The greatest mission of a company is to secure sustainability and maintain employment," and said, "We must not be complacent with current achievements but continuously monitor macroeconomic trends, markets, and customer trends, and based on this, change our business, organization, processes, and even organizational culture."


As measures, he mentioned pursuing business diversification and developing various revenue sources, external cooperation and partnerships, and preparing scenario plans through risk management and monitoring.



Finally, Chairman Kim emphasized employee happiness, saying, "The company's new vision core is to become the company where employees are happiest in Korea." Earlier, in August last year, the company declared a vision to "become a company where employees are happy by 2027." He said, "We must achieve the mission of spreading the happiness virus we create to those around us and widely publicizing it so that Korea becomes a little brighter and happier thanks to us."
