On September 18, SK On announced that Kisoo Park, head of the Future Technology Institute, delivered an R&D special lecture at Hanyang University. This was the second time the head of the Future Technology Institute, who oversees SK On’s R&D, has given a university lecture, following the first at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) in May.

On the previous day, the 17th, Park gave a lecture titled "The Determined Future, Our Path Forward" to an audience of about 120, including faculty and graduate students in battery-related fields at Hanyang University. Park introduced the global outlook and technology trends in the electric vehicle and battery industries; SK On’s growth strategies and technological leadership in major markets such as the United States, Europe, and Asia; and key achievements, including winning global awards.

Park stated, "The future of technology companies ultimately depends on people, especially research and development talent," and added, "Industry-academia collaboration, where companies and universities work together, marks the beginning of shared growth to transform the R&D paradigm and lead future technologies." He continued, "SK On will go beyond simple recruitment to genuinely communicate with young talent on university campuses and consistently create opportunities to share in the future of technological innovation."

Meanwhile, SK On continues to promote its status and business vision through industry-academia collaboration activities, such as CEO special lectures at leading universities in Korea. In addition, the company plans to expand on-site communication by the head of the Future Technology Institute, focusing on contract-based recruitment schools and strategic research hubs.
