SK Telecom Selected as a 'UNGC Lead Company' for 2027, Pursuing Eco-Friendly Management with AI
Published
SK Telecom has been selected as a 'UNGC Lead Company' for 2027. UNGC is the abbreviation for the United Nations Global Compact, an international program of the United Nations that helps companies practice sustainable management in the areas of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption.
SK Telecom said it will pursue eco-friendly management using artificial intelligence (AI) technology. As companies increasingly consider responsibility for environmental issues to be important, this selection serves as an example showing the sustainable management efforts of domestic companies.
Meanwhile, the World Bank is paying attention to 'Small AI' as a technology that will drive economic growth in developing countries. Small AI refers to artificial intelligence that costs little to operate and runs lightly. It can be used without large-scale facilities, and it is evaluated as having high potential for use even in places with limited resources.
As such, AI technology is being discussed in connection not only with corporate environmental management but also with the economic development of many countries. Attention is gathering on what eco-friendly management results SK Telecom will achieve by using AI in the future.
