SK On, a leading global battery and trading company, reaffirmed its dedication to nurturing future technology talent, recognizing it as a key pillar of long-term growth and industry advancement. <\/span><\/p>\n

SK On said that its CEO and President, Dr. Lee Seok-hee, delivered a special lecture on Tuesday at Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (KAIST), one of the nation\u2019s leading research universities located in Daejeon, where he stressed the importance of both talent and technology. <\/span><\/p>\n

During the lecture, attended by some 100 students and faculty members, Lee highlighted SK On\u2019s efforts to raise future R&D professionals as a foundation for sustainable growth across the company and the industry. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe future of the battery industry ultimately depends on technology talent,\u201d Lee said during his lecture at KAIST, where also he served as a professor of electrical engineering from 2010 to 2012. \u201cWe place the highest value on hands-on experience in R&D and manufacturing.” <\/span><\/p>\n

Lee presented SK On\u2019s identity as a growth-driven and innovation-focused company. He also introduced SK On\u2019s various technological advancements, including high-voltage mid-nickel batteries and cell-to-pack technologies, and highlighted the industry-leading performance of its products in energy density, fast charging, and safety.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe battery business is a technology-driven manufacturing sector,\u201d he said. \u201cWe are committed to enhancing our technological edge to position ourselves as a top-tier battery company.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

SK On, part of South Korea\u2019s second largest conglomerate SK Group, recognizes R&D talent development as a key driver of future growth. The battery maker has been advancing related initiatives in collaboration with South Korea\u2019s top research universities in recent years. <\/span><\/p>\n

Last month, Park Ki-soo, the head of R&D at SK On, delivered a lecture at the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) following the extension of the company\u2019s partnership with the university.<\/span><\/p>\n

Senior executives have been visiting top research universities across the country to give industry lectures, sharing the company\u2019s technological capabilities and vision, while engaging directly with students.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Korea, SK On is fostering master\u2019s and doctoral-level talent through battery-focused contract departments established in partnership with KAIST, UNIST, Sungkyunkwan University, and Hanyang University. <\/span><\/p>\n

SK On also supports technology talent through joint research centers established with Yonsei University and Hanyang University. <\/span><\/p>\n

To secure future talent, SK On is actively recruiting industry-academia scholarship students and offers rolling recruitment for experienced professionals and new doctoral graduates.<\/span><\/p>\n
