Hana Financial, SEMAS launch project to support young business owners

Hana Financial Group and Small Enterprise & Market Service (SEMAS) have teamed up to create an initiative called Hana On, Youth On. This project aims to support young business owners across the nation. The project involves fifteen teams of enthusiastic young entrepreneurs, all working together on joint initiatives to boost customer engagement and promote local commercial areas.

A launch event was held in Daejeon, where Hana Financial Chairman Ham Young-joo, SEMAS President In Tae-yeon, and around 100 project participants were in attendance. This collaboration came after a memorandum of understanding was signed in June to support young entrepreneurs and improve regional commercial districts. The participating teams will collaborate on events, promotional activities, and local improvements, with Hana Financial and SEMAS providing funding, expert advice, and customized financial aid.

The focus of this project is to empower young business owners and strengthen local commercial environments.
