HD Hyundai strategic leadership and energy cooperation

Overview

HD Hyundai Chairman Chung Ki-sun has initiated a strategic focus on long-term sustainability and safety.

Concurrently, during an executive strategy meeting at the group’s Global R&D Center, Chung called for a “20-year vision” for the company. He urged leaders to prioritize long-term growth over short-term results and designated workplace safety as the group’s “highest management priority.” The leadership team also addressed accelerating AI transformation and enhancing information security measures.
