EcoPro was recognized for its contributions to regional balanced development through ▲ revitalizing the local economy and balanced development by employing local talent ▲ playing an anchor role in transforming Pohang from a steel city to a secondary battery hub ▲ participating in the leading project of the Global Corporate Innovation Park.
Song Hojun, CEO of EcoPro, said, "EcoPro started as a venture company headquartered in Ochang, Chungbuk, and has grown into a global battery materials company by employing local talent and continuously investing. This is a case that allows us to reflect on the role of companies in preventing local extinction."
