[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] SK Telecom announced on the 23rd that ahead of the Lunar New Year, it plans to make early payments totaling approximately 85 billion KRW before the holiday begins, together with ICT family companies such as SK Broadband and SK Stoa, to help its business partners reduce financial burdens.
SK Telecom, along with SK Broadband and SK Stoa, decided to make early payments amounting to about 85 billion KRW to over 1,100 small and medium-sized partner companies and approximately 270 agencies nationwide.
SK Telecom expects that this early payment will alleviate the financial burdens of small business partners responsible for network facility construction and maintenance, as well as service operations, who have been striving to maintain service quality despite the COVID-19 situation, thereby contributing to the revitalization of the domestic economy.
Separately, SK Telecom operates various win-win growth activities including ▲ operation of a co-prosperity fund ▲ operation of the 'Immediate Payment for SMEs' program ▲ industrial innovation consulting ▲ and an online recruitment center for business partners.
Jinwon Kim, Head of Corporate Planning at SK Telecom, stated, "Despite the challenging business environment due to the prolonged pandemic, we will continue to practice various win-win collaborations to grow together with our partners who strive to provide the best services."
