I have had the honor and a pleasure supporting Keith Krach during his term as Under Secretary of State for Economic Growth, Energy and the Environment. Given our similar backgrounds of having worked in technology and in the auto industry, I am absolutely thrilled to help advance his passion for helping the United States on critical areas such as 5G, AI, semiconductors and cyber security. With Korea becoming an even greater partner to the United States, I remain hopeful that my position as Chairman and CEO of AMCHAM can support the mission of the Krach Institute for Tech Diplomacy at Purdue as a non-political, non-partisan organization.
