Gradient subsidiary iMarket Korea announced on the 7th that it has hired Mr. Namho Park, a former Samsung Electronics executive, as the Managing Director of its industrial complex development project in Texas, USA.
By bringing in a global business development expert with experience in overseas operations, iMarket Korea plans to actively advance the development of the US industrial cluster, tentatively named 'Taylor Technology Park.'
Managing Director Namho Park graduated from California State University and its business school. He previously served as CFO of Samsung Electronics' Austin semiconductor division and as head of Samsung Display's Suzhou, China branch. He also served as CEO of Hanyang ENG.
