“Global CEO Special Lecture” Course by Astronergy Solar Korea CEO Jyh-Ping Chang
 
On April 13 (Thu), Astronergy Solar Korea CEO Jyh-Ping Chang gave a lecture in room 432 of LG-POSCO Building. As an alumnus of the Class of ’79 at Korea University Business School (KUBS), CEO Chang donated numerous times for the development of the school. He currently serves as an adjunct professor at KUBS. The lecture, which was mainly focused on renewable energy industry, covered △Concept and Principle of Solar Power and △Prospect for Renewable Energy. 
 
 
Without having any particular technology, CEO Chang founded a company whose annual sales are 100 billion won in solar power industry. “The key to success in business is entrepreneurship,” he said. “Before taking the path of an entrepreneur, I sat down in a bookstore to read countless books on startups.”

CEO Chang also focused on benefits of renewable energy and its potential in the future. “Solar power is semi-permanent, which means that there will be no additional cost once it is created,” he added. “Although renewable energy is not rapidly pervaded due to political issues and cost, it will get popular someday.”

“Among renewable energy, solar power industry has lower barriers to entry,” CEO Chang said. He emphasized to students that they should pay attention to renewable energy industry and not be afraid of it.
