"Next-Generation Project Performance Report and ICT Future Vision Proclamation Ceremony" Held

On April 27, the Korea Technology Finance Corporation (KOTEC) announced that it held the "Next-Generation Project Performance Report & ICT Future Vision Proclamation Ceremony" at its Busan headquarters, officially declaring its leap forward as a digital policy finance institution based on Artificial Intelligence Transformation (AX). This event was organized to share the achievements of building the next-generation information system and to present the transition to a digital policy finance framework based on AX, as well as long-term strategies for implementation.

The next-generation information system project was implemented to overhaul KOTEC’s entire system, enabling faster and more convenient delivery of policy finance services, drive digital-based work innovation, and strengthen data-driven decision-making. KOTEC invested approximately KRW 20 billion in the project over a period of 20 months, resulting in the launch and stable operation of the "SME Venture ONE Platform" in February.

In particular, the customer-integrated portal "KOTEC ONE Platform" was established as a single window that consolidates the main functions and membership information of the website. This enables small and medium-sized venture enterprises to access a wide range of financial and non-financial services with a single account (ID). With all customer touchpoints integrated, user convenience has been greatly enhanced.

KOTEC also completely overhauled the user interface (UI/UX) of its core work systems, such as guarantee and technology evaluation, thereby improving operational efficiency. In addition, the corporation strengthened the stability and scalability of its systems and laid the digital foundation to respond to the expanded utilization of artificial intelligence in the future.

At the event, KOTEC declared its ICT future vision as "the implementation of an intelligent innovative technology finance platform that comprehensively supports venture finance and technological innovation," and presented four strategic goals: ▲Intelligentization of technology finance work based on artificial intelligence ▲Strengthening of the data-driven collaborative ecosystem ▲Platform innovation to support customer growth ▲Establishment of a sustainable IT infrastructure.

With this proclamation, KOTEC plans to further advance its data-based policy finance framework and fully accelerate service innovation using digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of policy finance support. Kim Joungho, Chairman of KOTEC, stated, "This next-generation project is a turning point that goes beyond a simple system replacement, fundamentally redefining work and service methods from a digital perspective. KOTEC will continue its digital innovation to further advance the support system for small and medium-sized venture enterprises."
