The need for a new entrepreneurial spirit that resonates with Taewon Choi’s new year’s hottest

“I think it’s time for a new entrepreneurial spirit to sympathize with society and work hard to solve problems.”
SK Group Chairman Choi Tae-won said, “Let’s work together to solve problems and sympathize with the society with a new entrepreneurial spirit” through an e-mail to the former employee on the 1st.
Chairman Choi first thanked the members who did their best in the difficult environment last year. Chairman Choi said, “SK was able to grow as it is now, not only because we are good, but because of the opportunities and support that the society has allowed,” he said. “We were clumsy and insufficient in returning the benefits and encouragement that companies received. I came to rethink the role,” he said.
In particular, Chairman Choi said, “A catastrophe such as climate change or a pandemic destroys the weakest places in society first, and companies cannot be free from social problems.” When you need it,” he emphasized.
In addition, although a company cannot solve all problems, he suggested to the members to find out what can be done right now using the group’s capabilities and assets, and mentioned the’Happy Lunchbox’ project that SK Group has been running for 15 years to solve the problem of lack of food .
The purpose is to find a way to provide meals to the vulnerable by using’Happy Lunch Box’ in a situation where many free meal centers across the country have been suspended due to the current coronavirus. In consideration of the COVID-19 situation, SK Group decided to cancel the annual New Year’s Meeting, which was held annually, and to add the budget to support the underprivileged.
Chairman Choi finally presupposes that this year will not be easy again, “We need creative efforts to prevent difficult conditions from hindering our pursuit of happiness.” He added.
