Through this acquisition, Samil PwC plans to strengthen the expertise secured by IPR Square and provide customers with more specialized comprehensive advisory services based on an extensive network and digital capabilities. In particular, it aims to meet the IR and PR demands of KOSPI and KOSDAQ-listed companies, enhance support capabilities for listed companies, and focus on playing a platform role in discovering promising companies before their initial public offerings (IPO).

The newly launched PwC Business Services will be operated under a dual CEO system with IR and PR expert Namgu Lee as CEO and Jiwon Jung, Partner at Samil PwC and Head of the Listed Company Support Center, to create synergy with Samil PwC. Seungcheol Kim, Senior Research Fellow at Samil PwC Management Research Institute, will concurrently serve as Head of the Research Center, responsible for client research tasks and business expansion. Additionally, to strengthen the IPO Service Division for unlisted companies preparing for IPOs, many industry-verified personnel have been recruited.

Jiwon Jung, CEO of PwC Business Services, said, “Through the newly launched PwC Business Services, we can provide customers with more integrated and efficient services,” adding, “We will strive to help domestic small and medium-sized listed companies and promising enterprises secure investment opportunities and establish a foundation for sustainable growth.”
