Cho Hyun-min, president of Hanjin, has embarked on her first official role as the inaugural chair of the Korea Security Industry Association. She emphasized the association's role in connecting public security with private technology.
Hanjin announced that Cho presided over the association's general meeting on October 21 at the Incheon Songdo Convensia and attended the '2026 International Security Industry Exhibition (KPEX).' During the meeting, she urged, "The association must serve as a strong bridge connecting public security and private innovative technologies, becoming the focal point for the future advancement of the security industry."
Following the meeting, Cho attended the opening ceremony of the International Security Industry Exhibition and toured key booths to examine advanced security technologies and the current state of the industry.
In her inaugural speech at the founding meeting in September, Cho highlighted the need for synergy between field capabilities and advanced technologies. She outlined a vision for creating an industrial ecosystem encompassing research and development of security technologies, professional workforce training, institutional support, and international expansion.
The Korea Security Industry Association is operating a promotional booth at this year's International Security Industry Exhibition to raise awareness of its role and attract new members.
The association plans to establish a collaborative framework connecting police, businesses, universities, and research institutions to facilitate the introduction of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and intelligent closed-circuit television (CCTV) into security operations. Additionally, it aims to discover and nurture domestic security companies while supporting technology validation, commercialization, and international expansion.
Meanwhile, Hanjin is enhancing its smart logistics competitiveness based on AI and big data, with plans to improve logistics operational efficiency using new technologies such as physical AI in the future.
