Hello, I am Jang In-hwa, Chairperson of the POSCO TJ Park Foundation.

The POSCO TJ Park Foundation traces its origins back to the Steel Scholarship Foundation, established in 1971 by Honorary Chairman Park Tae-joon. Since then, we have been dedicated to fostering outstanding talent and contributing to the shared development of Korea and other Asian countries through global social contributions.

Through the POSCO TJ Park Prize, our foundation recognizes and honors individuals and organizations that have demonstrated remarkable achievements and a profound commitment to humanity in the fields of Science, Technology, Education, Philanthropy. Additionally, through programs such as the POSCO Science Fellowship, POSCO Asia Fellowship, and POSCO Youth Fellowship, we have been unwavering in our efforts to identify and nurture promising talent, both in Korea and globally.

Moving forward, we will continue to support future generations so that they may grow into leaders who illuminate the future of Korea and Asia through these key initiatives.

As Chairperson of the POSCO TJ Park Foundation, I am fully committed to fulfilling our mission of fostering the next generation of talent, strengthening global networks, and expanding our social contributions, ensuring that our foundation serves as a guiding light for society and future generations.

Thank you.
