Korea Federation of SMEs Conducts Jakomo Company Visit for 'SME Big Brother Project'

The Korea Federation of Small and Medium Business (Kbiz) announced on the 26th that it conducted a company visit to Jacomo's Namyangju headquarters with 25 representatives of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) established within the last seven years as part of the 'SME Big Brother Project.'

This company visit included lectures by Park Kyung-bun, Vice Chairman of Jacomo, and Kang Hyung-geun, CEO of HK&Company, followed by a tour of Jacomo.

The first lecture was delivered by Vice Chairman Park Kyung-bun under the theme of "Sofas with Dignity." Vice Chairman Park shared with junior entrepreneurs the goals and experiences of maintaining the business despite difficult domestic economic conditions and a social background that limited women's economic activities, as well as the commitment to quality and trust that helped Jacomo establish itself as the number one sofa brand in Korea.

Vice Chairman Park stated, “For a company to endure over time, it must focus on quality while adhering to principles and trust rather than seeking quick shortcuts. To grow into a company for people, attention must be paid to employee welfare.”

In the second part, CEO Kang Hyung-geun gave a lecture titled "Breakthrough Strategies of Innovative Companies," introducing creative challenges of global startups pioneering new markets through digital innovation technologies.

CEO Kang said, “Managers must always have a helicopter view to perceive movements in world technology and market changes with high-level capabilities, and they must evolve their business models through open collaboration with external partners.”

Meanwhile, Kbiz conducts the 'SME Big Brother Project' every month, offering lectures by successful senior entrepreneurs as mentors.
