Mar. 20, 2023 - POSCO Chemical changed its name to 'POSCO FUTURE M' and is reborn as an eco-friendly future materials company.
POSCO Chemical confirmed the name change to POSCO Future M at the general shareholders' meeting held at the Pohang headquarters on the 20th, and then held a mission declaration ceremony with President Kim Joon-hyeong and other executives and staff members in attendance.
The new name, POSCO Future M, means that it will take a leading role (management) in creating an affluent future (Future) by leading changes (Movement) in the world through competitive materials (Materials).
While POSCO Group, which has supported the development of the national economy through its steel business, is pushing for a great transformation into an 'eco-friendly future materials representative company' with the launch of a holding company last year, POSCO Future M, as a core operating company, is leading a new future change for the POSCO Group.

“Over the past half century, our company has been leading the national economic development through various materials as a reliable partner of the steel industry,” said Joon-hyung Kim, president of POSCO Future M, in a commemorative speech at the name change declaration ceremony. “Let's start by renewing our name to achieve our vision of 'a global leading company in chemical and energy materials' and successfully build a new future as a 100-year-old company.”
Meanwhile, POSCO Future M also appointed inside and outside directors to lead the company through a general meeting of shareholders and board of directors on the same day.
