Human Technology to Change Corporate Name to "AGOS" and Restructure Business Around Anti-Drone and Defense Sectors View original image

Human Technology is changing its corporate name to "AGOS" and is embarking on a full-scale restructuring of its business to focus on anti-drone and defense industries. The company plans to shift to a defense-oriented business model and strengthen its strategy to target the global anti-drone market.


On May 15, Human Technology held a board meeting and resolved to convene an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, the company announced on May 18. At the extraordinary general meeting scheduled for June 30, the company intends to proceed with the name change and reorganize its business objectives.


The new corporate name, "AGOS," is the name previously used by Human AGOS, a wholly owned subsidiary that has been engaged in the anti-drone business. The company stated that it already enjoys strong brand recognition in the anti-drone and defense sectors.


According to the company, "AGOS" combines the Greek roots "Argos" (brilliant watcher) and "Agos" (leader), reflecting its vision to lead the future defense market with anti-drone capabilities based on surveillance and detection technology.


Human Technology explained that the decision to change its name was driven by the growing importance of the anti-drone industry amid changes in the global security environment, and by the need to strengthen competitiveness and establish a clear market identity in the sector.


The company will also reorganize its business objectives. Currently in the process of merging with Human AGOS, the company plans to add anti-drone and defense-related business areas to its articles of incorporation, while phasing out non-core businesses to restructure around its core operations. In March last year, the company decided on an absorption-type merger with Human AGOS.


Human Technology is also implementing a three-stage growth strategy: strengthening its dominance in the domestic market in the short term, becoming the global leader in the anti-drone market in the mid-term, and evolving into a comprehensive defense solutions provider in the long term.


The company plans to reinvest the capital and personnel secured during the restructuring process into its defense business. In particular, after the merger with Human AGOS is complete, it will focus management resources on advancing integrated anti-drone solutions (C-UAS) and expanding into global markets.


Human AGOS currently holds the top share in the domestic anti-drone market and has recently achieved milestones such as entering the European market through a consortium of five K-defense companies and being selected as an excellent product by the Public Procurement Service.


A company representative stated, "This revision of the articles of incorporation and business restructuring is a process to redefine our business structure and corporate direction around anti-drone and defense industries. By discontinuing non-core businesses and focusing our capabilities on the defense sector, we aim to achieve a turnaround with significant revenue growth and profitability starting this year."



Human Technology is accelerating its transformation into a specialized anti-drone and defense company through its name change and business restructuring.
