July 30 | SK strengthens its measurement standard development function through CSES

SK is stepping up its efforts to build a social value measurement system in cooperation with China’s State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (SASAC) and Germany’s BASF as well as domestic public corporations, public agencies, and social enterprises. The standardization work is driven by Chairman Chey Tae-won’s belief that ‘what is measurable is manageable, so evolution and development are possible.’ On July 30, the Center for Social Value Enhancement Studies (CSES) which is SK’s non-profit research foundation, held an opening ceremony after being moved to a larger facility. Chairman Chey said here, “We launched CSES since social values need to be measured prior to systematically dealing with social issues.”
