SK Square Moves to Fully Integrate AI Into Investments and Affiliates' Services

According to AI TIMES, SK Square said on September 10 that it has begun in earnest its transition to an 'AI-native' investment company that places AI at the center of its investment work and portfolio business models. About 80 employees are currently building and applying more than 90 AI agents directly in their day-to-day work, changing both investment review and organizational operations. Centered on its newly established AI innovation organization, the company is creating a system that allows people to freely use a range of AI models and building an internal knowledge hub that links individual work results to the organization’s assets. In the investment area, it aims for a structure in which AI handles repetitive tasks while people focus on judgment, verification, and high-difficulty decision-making. At the same time, it has seen improvements in operating efficiency and profitability at portfolio companies based on workflow automation results, and a move to extend that experience across the group’s ICT services has also become clear. In the end, SK Square appears to be laying out a strategy to make AI not a support tool, but the basic framework for operating an investment company and innovating affiliate services.
