Additionally, the Entrepreneurship Power Plant and the Livelihood Economy TF were newly established.

The Entrepreneurship Power Plant is part of the plan to strengthen entrepreneurship projects announced since last year, with the main goal of expanding Korea's growth engines. The inaugural director concurrently serves as Jeong Cheol, Chief Research Officer (CRO) and President of the Korea Economic Research Institute.

The Livelihood Economy TF aims to contribute to the recovery of the frozen livelihood economy by utilizing the Korea Economic Association's long-standing experience and assets. It plans various activities, including proposing measures to stabilize living costs that help the daily lives of the public.

The Korea Economic Association stated, "The three core keywords of this year's organizational restructuring are expanding growth engines, recovering livelihoods, and responding to the Trump 2nd Term era," adding, "Based on the spirit of serving the nation through business, we will do our best to contribute to the development of the country and the national economy."
