[News Article] LG CNS, 범정부 초거대 AI 정보화전략계획 사업 맡는다

LG CNS, 범정부 초거대 AI 정보화전략계획 사업 맡는다 연합뉴스 홍국기 기자 - LG가 범정부 초거대 인공지능(AI)에 대한 청사진을 설계할 대기업 사업자로 선정됐다. 10일 정보기술(IT) 업계에 따르면 LG그룹의 디지털전환(DX) 전문 자회사인 LG CNS가 포함된 컨소시엄(투이컨설팅 컨소시엄)은 '범정부 초거대 AI 공통 기반 구현과 디지털 행정혁신 체계 수립을 위한 BPR(business process re-engineering·업무 절차 재설계)/ISP(Information Strategy Planning·정보화 전략 계획)' 사업에 대해 5개 컨소시엄과 경합을 벌인 끝에 우선협상대상자로 결정됐다. 사업은 초거대 AI 기술의 정부 내 활용이 요구되는 상황에서 대국민 공공 서비스와 내부 행정에 이를 범정부적으로 활용하기 위한 체계를 마련하기 위한 것이다. 정부에 창의적 업무에 집중하는 근무 환경을 조성하고, 공무원의 일하는 환경을 혁신하는 첫걸음이라고 할 수 있는 사업이다. 구체적으로 사업은 초거대 AI 관련 기술 동향과 국내외 법령 분석, 행정 조직·시스템 내부 현황 분석 및 개선 과제 도출, 초거대 AI 친화적인 환경 조성과 관련 제도 개선 방안 검토, 범정부 AI 확산 전략 수립 서비스 유형과 적용 효과성 검토를 골자로 한다. 사업 금액은 약 10억8천만원, 사업 기간은 우선 협상 과정을 거쳐 계약 후 약 8개월간이다. LG CNS는 컨소시엄에 포함된 5개사 가운데 유일한 대기업으로 이번 사업에 참여했다. 이번 사업은 대기업 참여 제한 예외를 부분 인정받았기 때문이다. 사업 금액의 100분의 20 이내에서 상호출자제한 기업 집단 소속 회사를 포함한 모든 소프트웨어 사업자가 주계약자 이외의 구성원으로 참여할 수 있었다. 이 밖에도 LG CNS는 교육부가 추진하는 AI 디지털 교과서 학습 데이터 관리 체계 구축 사업도 중소기업 3곳과 함께 컨소시엄을 구성해 참여했다. 이 컨소시엄은 KT가 포함된 컨소시엄과 경쟁해 우선협상대상자로 선정됐다. 사업 규모는 약 808억원이다. 교육부의 대규모 시스템 구축 사업에 대기업이 참여하는 것은 2010년 삼성SDS가 3세대 교육행정정보시스템(NEIS)을 구축한 이후 처음이다. 2013년 소프트웨어진흥법 제정으로 당시 공공 소프트웨어 사업에 대기업 참여 제한이 도입되면서 이후 교육부 사업은 대부분 중소·중견기업 컨소시엄이 맡아왔다. 올해 들어 AI센터를 출범한 LG CNS는 이처럼 최근 잇달아 굵직한 정부 사업을 수주하면서 생성형 AI 사업에 한층 탄력을 받을 것으로 예상된다. 출처: https://www.yna.co.kr/view/AKR20240310039100017?input=1195m

[News Article] Hyundai Motor launches EV trade-in program

Hyundai Motor launches EV trade-in program By Baek Byung-yeul, The Korea Times - Hyundai Motor introduced a trade-in program that allows customers to purchase new electric vehicles (EVs) at a lower price in exchange for a used one as part of the carmaker’s efforts to reduce the burden for consumers looking to buy new eco-friendly cars and consequently expand its EV share, the company said Thursday. The company said it launched the trade-in program on March 1. The program is available to those who sell their EVs through a certified used car service and buy a new Hyundai Motor EV, such as the IONIQ 5 and the IONIQ 6. Trade-ins are thriving in the smartphone market to reduce the price burden on consumers. In exchange for trading in an old product, consumers can buy a new one for less than the original price. “For example, a customer who owns the 2022 model year IONIQ 5 can trade in the vehicle and get ... the New IONIQ 5 for less than the factory price,” the company said. Consumers can easily sell their vehicles through Hyundai Motor-Genesis certified vehicle app via smartphones or the website. In addition, Hyundai is offering special rewards to consumers who trade in their vehicles to purchase a new EV. “Owners of Hyundai Motor or Genesis EVs who sell their vehicle to a certified used car service will receive a reward in addition to the sale price. The reward can be up to 2 percent of the sale price. Also, they will receive an additional discount of 500,000 won ($376) from the price of new EVs,” the company said. There are also benefits for those who trade in an internal combustion engine or hybrid vehicle (HEV) for a Hyundai Motor’s EV. If they sell their cars, including any other brand, to a Hyundai Motor’s certified used car service, they can get up to 4 percent of the sale price. “We plan to continue to offer a number of benefits to help position Hyundai Motor’s certified used car service as a trusted EV trading platform for our customers,” the company said.

[News Article] McDonald's Korea serving sundaes in fully-recycled packaging

McDonald's Korea serving sundaes in fully-recycled packaging BY SEO JI-EUN, Korea JoongAng Daily — McDonald's customers in Korea are now being served their sundae ice cream in slightly tinted transparent plastic cups and lids. These are not just any ordinary plastic items — they are made from discarded plastic bottles. Each cup-and-lid set is made from approximately two and a half recycled 500-milliliter (17 ounce) plastic bottles. This is part of McDonald's efforts to reduce its carbon footprint, with the company expecting to achieve carbon reduction by approximately 59 percent. McDonald's Korea aims to positively influence the industry as the first to implement this initiative among the fast food giant's global network chain as well as the Korean food service sector. At the factory of Sangjin, the partner responsible for packaging production for McDonald's Korea, located in Anseong, Gyeonggi, the roar of machinery drowned out conversations as transparent film-like material flowed steadily from the industrial equipment. This fabric is made from melted rPET chips, the raw material of recycled PET. Following the molding process, the fabric moves to adjacent machines where it's shaped into cups, with the iconic McDonald's "M" symbol embossed during production. To ensure comfort when eating, the rims of the cups are rounded. Richard Ha, a purchasing supervisor at McDonald's Korea, highlighted the company's commitment to various environmental, social and governance (ESG) activities, including food quality assurance, environmental responsibility, community engagement, and employee education. “While our focus used to be on reducing plastic usage, we’re now shifting toward finding ways to recycle waste generated in stores,” Ha said during a press tour on Tuesday. Despite their recycled origin, these cups maintain hygiene and quality standards, undergoing a rigorous sterilization, washing, processing and shredding regime. "Compared to conventional products, there is no compromise in hygiene or quality," said Kim Han-il, senior director of supply chain management at McDonald's Korea. "Initially, we also had concerns, but customers have responded positively to recycled PET." Koreans’ exceptional recycling effortsMcDonald's Korea has become the first among global McDonald's subsidiaries to adopt 100 percent recycled PET. Initially implemented for sundae ice cream cups, the plan is to utilize 100 percent recycled plastic for all takeaway coffee cups by the year's end. What sets McDonald's Korea's initiative apart is the recycling ratio of the newly introduced product. Recycled PET is the most eco-friendly option, but its production entails a relatively high cost — about 20 percent higher than that of conventional plastic — and a lengthy manufacturing procedure due to its complex processing requirements. In the face of such impediments, some companies opt for lower percentages of recycled plastic. Despite the initial cost burden, McDonald's Korea believes that through ESG activities, they can build consumer trust, and it may eventually contribute to revenue growth. "Among the younger generation, when companies engage in acts of goodwill, they say they "make donjjul" [a combination of honjjul, meaning punishment in Korean, and don, meaning money], implying that they are ‘reprimanding’ the company with money,” Kim said in an interview with reporters. “With us emphasizing not only environmental activities but also social responsibility activities, consumers are becoming more aware over time, and as our brand trust increases, it significantly benefits sales,” Kim said. As the climate crisis worsens, the markets most proactive in environmental regulations are Europe and the United States. The EU has implemented a regulation that by 2025, beverage bottles must be made with at least 25 percent recycled materials, and California has required that all forms of single-use packaging be recyclable or compostable by 2032. It was in February 2022 that the Korean government established standards for the recycling of food containers using transparent PET bottles. However, there have been fluctuations in environmental policies across different administrations, such as with paper straws. Among the global fast food company's chains, the reason McDonald's Korea became the first to introduce 100 percent recycled plastic is thanks to the country's recycling culture. "I lived abroad for 23 years, and there aren't many countries like Korea that strictly enforce separate waste collection, like peeling off the labels from PET bottles after drinking a beverage. In other countries, garbage is simply dumped altogether,” Kim said. "European countries are pushing environmental initiatives at the government level, but companies voluntarily engaging in initiatives like ours are very hard to find,” Kim said. “We expect many companies to join the use of recycled PET in the future, expanding the market and reducing the cost burden." 'We do it because we like it' McDonald's emphasizes its environmental commitment with the slogan “Better World, Better McDonald's," or "we do it because we like it" in Korean, suggesting a motive beyond profit. The ice cream served in their recycled plastic cups is sourced from the milk of cows given feed repurposed from McCafe coffee waste. The company aims to go further by 2025, transitioning all packaging used in stores to materials that are recyclable and reusable. Previously, strawless lids were introduced, which were recycled into materials for winter outerwear for the staff. "We are genuinely committed to environmental sustainability under the banner of 'Better World, Better McDonald's,'" expressed Kim. "We hope to inspire other companies to join us in our collective journey toward a more eco-conscious future." In addition to their environmental initiatives, McDonald's is also pushing for social responsibility with the inclusive hiring of seniors and people with disabilities, while also engaging in community-focused projects.

[News Article] Inspire Resort opens in Incheon with grand hopes of becoming hit global attraction

Inspire Resort opens in Incheon with grand hopes of becoming hit global attraction BY LEE JIAN, Korea JoongAng Daily - Eight years ago, Korean government officials and leaders of American casino and gaming company Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment (MGE) gathered to seal the deal on an ambitious multibillion-dollar integrated resort on an island off the west coast of Incheon's mainland. Their work finally came to fruition Tuesday as Inspire Entertainment Resort on Yeongjong Island held its official grand opening ceremony the same day. The event was attended by some 500 dignitaries and guests, including Korea’s Culture Minister Yu In-chon, the U.S. Ambassador to Korea Philip S. Goldberg and the members of the Mohegan Council of Elders and Tribal Council of Management Board. “This endeavor has been a journey of shared visions and aspirations between the Mohegan Tribe and the Republic of Korea,” James Gessner Jr., the chairman of the Mohegan Tribe and the MGE Management Board, said in his opening speech. Inspire Resort is MGE's wholly-owned Korean subsidiary, scheduled to open in multiple phases until 2046 and develop a large-scale integrated resort complex on a 4.36-million-square-meter (46.9-million-square-foot) site at the International Business Complex, otherwise known as the IBC-III area, of Incheon International Airport. The aggregate funds invested in its first phase alone amounts to some 2 trillion won ($1.6 billion), including 960 billion won in foreign direct investment. When fully operational, the first phase is expected to create approximately 3,000 to 4,000 jobs, according to the resort. Currently open under this first phase are three five-star hotel towers with 1,275 rooms combined; a live performance arena with 15,000 seats; MICE (meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions) facilities with the largest hotel banquet hall in Korea; a year-round indoor water park; a foreigner-only casino; a 150-meter (490-foot) immersive digital entertainment street; and Inspire Mall that combines shopping, dining and entertainment spaces. It also plans to open an outdoor entertainment park spanning approximately 100,000 square meters, a 1,000-seat food court, an immersive content exhibition center and an indoor playground for children, all under Phase 1B that is said to open in the second quarter. “I truly believe we can make Yeongjong Island a global tourism destination, and we ask for your continued support,” Inspire Resort President Chen Si said. Business aside, however, Tuesday’s evening foremost celebrated the conjoining of cultures, with vibrant representations of Koreans, Americans and Mohegans. A slew of performances by members of the Mohegan Tribe and traditional Korean performance group MeganDang graced the event. There was also the tribe’s traditional Smudging ceremony to “honor people and the area and give them positive energy,” according to Gessner. “Our journey here has been guided by the Spirit of Aquai, Mohegan’s guiding principle that emphasizes hospitality, mutual respect, collaboration and relationship building,” Ray Pineault, President and CEO of Mohegan, said. “This ethos is woven into the fabric of Inspire, reflecting our commitment to sustainability, community engagement and creating a space that respects the environment and fosters connections between people from all walks of life. Mohegan Inspire is poised to become a landmark destination and a catalyst for tourism, economic growth, and cultural exchanges, enhancing the region’s allure to visitors from across the globe.” The Mohegan Tribe, residing in the Thames River region in Uncasville, Connecticut, is a Native American tribe and a sovereign nation officially recognized by the U.S. Federal Government. In 1994, the U.S. Congress passed the Mohegan Nation (Connecticut) Land Claims Settlement Act and authorized the designation of the Mohegan Reservation area. The Mohegan Tribe established a gaming business thereupon acquiring sovereign protection, to generate revenue for tribal welfare and economic development. Since opening Mohegan Sun Casino near the historic Fort Shantok above the River Thames in October 1996, the tribe has grown the development into an established integrated entertainment resort business with multiple properties. Mohegan owns and operates integrated resorts across North America including Connecticut, New Jersey, Washington, Pennsylvania and Nevada in the United States, and in Niagara Falls, Canada. Inspire in Korea is its first outpost in Asia. Ambassador Goldberg said this joint endeavor between Korean partners and an American — read, a Native American — company “captures the spirit of our two countries.” “The economic relationship and investment between Korea is a two-way superhighway,” Goldberg said. “And today, we celebrate another major milestone in the U.S.-Korea investment relationship — the grand opening of the Inspire resort, one of the largest foreign direct investment ventures in Korea valued at $1.6 billion and expected to create more than 3,000 jobs.” Culture Minister Yu shared his anticipation of the recently opened foreigners-only Inspire casino. The ministry in January granted Mohegan Inspire the license for its international visitors-only casino — the first such license awarded in 19 years. Korea now has 18 foreigners-only casinos registered with the Korea Casino Association. Kangwon Land Casino is open to Koreans as well. “This doesn’t just mean one more casino has been added to the country, as the opening of Inspire’s gaming facility marks a significant milestone in Korea’s tourism industry,” Yu said. “I hope that Inspire Resort goes beyond opening its casino in Korea and makes a meaningful contribution to elevating Korea’s cultural tourism; and for this, it is vital that Inspire consistently invests time and energy to become a globally competitive Korean all-in-one resort.” Featuring some 150 gaming tables, 390 slot machines and a 160-seat ETG stadium across two floors, Inspire Casino is the largest foreigners-only casino in the country. It also has a dining section available exclusively to casino customers, including an original Cantonese fine dining Inspire Pavilion, and a VIP-only casino floor. Reachable through just a few-hour flights from major neighboring cities such as Tokyo, Osaka, Taipei, Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong, and adjacent to Incheon International Airport, it is expected to attract overseas visitors and transit passengers. Incheon International Airport Corporation CEO Lee Hag-jae hinted at the bright prospects for inbound tourism in Korea. According to Lee, Incheon airport recorded 56 million inbound visitors last year, recovering 80 percent of the demand from pre-Covid times in 2019. “This year we expect to see a full recovery, but strive to go beyond and record 100 million passengers to Korea as we are working to expand Terminal 2 of Incheon International Airport. Pairing Terminal 2 with the resort will help turn Yeongjong Island into a place that connects people and businesses.” The resort’s 15,000-seat multipurpose hall Inspire Arena is also expected to attract a bulk of visitors, hosting K-pop events, live music performances by domestic and international artists, K-culture events and Esports competitions. Next up on the venue’s call sheet is Maroon 5, slated to perform on March 8 and 9. It currently shares the title of the biggest concert venue in Korea, along with the KSPO Dome in Songpa District, southern Seoul. KSPO Dome is a gymnastics arena that was originally built for the 1988 Summer Olympics. All of the country’s live events requiring more than 4,000 people capacity have, in fact, been only held in either gymnasiums or sports stadiums. K-pop boy band EXO is set to hold a fan meet at the arena on March 14. The arena will also open the World Table Tennis Champions tournament, where 32 top table tennis players including Korea’s Shin Yu-bin and China’s Fan Zhendong and Sun Yingsha will participate in the games, from March 27 to 31. “Since the soft opening in November, the resort is already seeing more than 10,000 visitors on average daily and is poised to become a de facto iconic tourist destination in Korea,” Incheon Mayor Yoo Jeong-bok said. “I do not doubt this collaboration between the Korean government and Mohegan will not only boost the local economy and tourism, but the resort will also become a landmark that will be the best of its kind in Korea.” Source: https://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/2024-03-06/culture/foodTravel/Inspire-Resort-opens-in-Incheon-with-grand-hopes-of-becoming-hit-global-attraction/1995601

CES가 끝난 뒤 원더 글로브 처리 방안을 검토하던 SK는 제조업 기반 도시인 울산에 설치해 활용하면 산업시설에 예술적 감성을 더할 수 있다고 보고 울산시와 협의해 온 것으로 전해졌다. 이 밖에 도로변에 있는 석유저장 탱크와 노후한 공장 건물, 담장 등에 국내외 유명작가의 예술작품을 채색해 산업시설에 예술을 더한 경관거리를 조성한다. 협약에 따라 울산시는 행정적 지원을, 울산상의는 기업참여 환경 조성을 맡게 된다. 울산대는 디자인 자문과 협업에 협력한다. 울산시는 이번 사업이 완료되면 회색빛 공업도시라는 부정적인 인식이 개선돼 많은 사람들이 찾아와 즐길 수 있는 꿀잼도시 울산으로의 전환점이 될 것으로 기대하고 있다. 이번 사업의 사업비는 전액 SK이노베이션에서 부담하며 기획, 예술 조형물 설치, 도장공사 등을 거쳐 오는 8월까지 완료할 계획이다. 출처 : https://www.sedaily.com/NewsView/2D6J3MRNTL
