“I will also actively promote open innovation and merger and acquisitions in different sectors, including health and wellness, digital and the environment, for new growth engines,” Kim added.
The chairman asked employees to gear up for the company’s “Vision 2025,” and for 2024, the centenary of the group’s founding.
