Hanwha Vision has announced the appointment of Kichul Kim as the company’s new Chief Executive Officer.
Kim previously held the role of Chief Strategy Officer and brings extensive experience to his new position, having been with Hanwha Group since 1995.
His career includes key positions across the organisation, including roles within Hanwha Group’s Planning Office and Business Audit Team, leading Hanwha Vision’s Management Planning Team, serving as President of Hanwha Vision America, as Chief Sales and Marketing Officer of Hanwha Vision and most recently, as Chief Strategy Officer of Hanwha Vision.
Recognised as a leading strategic mind within the Hanwha Group, Kim has consistently delivered strong results in both strategic planning and sales and marketing, the company reports.
Notably, his five-year tenure as President of Hanwha Vision America in the US, a critical market for the company, saw significant expansion of the company’s global market share.
His strategic approach and robust global network were instrumental in establishing Hanwha Vision’s current global presence.
The company is currently focused on expanding its suite of customised services, including the innovative ‘AI Packs,’ designed for a wide range of industrial applications in manufacturing, retail and beyond.
This focus on advanced security solutions will continue to fuel Hanwha Vision’s global growth.
In addition to his role at Hanwha Vision, Kim will also assume the CEO position at its subsidiary, Hanwha Semitech.
Hanwha Semitech, which recently achieved mass production of High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) TC bonders and joined the NVIDIA supply chain, will prioritise strengthening its global market position.
Kim’s dual leadership is expected to foster significant technological synergy between the two companies.
“Despite intensifying global competition, we are committed to leading the market with our unique technological capabilities,” said Kim.
“We will focus on enhancing the competitiveness of our core business areas and actively pursuing new growth opportunities.”
