SEOUL, South Korea, Nov. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hanwha Life, a South Korean life insurance company, is hosting a five-day training program in South Korea from November 10 to 14, inviting and sponsoring 30 outstanding FinTech students from Vietnam as part of its global CSR program FuturePlus. The program takes place at Hanwha Life's headquarters in the 63 Building, its training institute LIFEPARK, and DREAMPLUS Gangnam.
The participants include winners of the Vietnam Informatics Olympiad, top-performing students from the FinTech Department at Vietnam–Korea University of Information and Communication Technology (VKU), scholarship recipients from Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HUTECH), and outstanding members of the Ho Chi Minh City Finance Mentor Program.
The training program began with a welcome ceremony at Hanwha Life's headquarters in the 63 Building in Yeouido, Seoul, followed by a visit to DREAMPLUS Gangnam, Hanwha Life's open innovation platform, where participants experienced South Korea's startup ecosystem and witnessed FinTech innovation firsthand.
They also attended expert-led lectures, including "AI-driven Innovation in Insurance Services," and "The Future of Insurtech in Financial Markets," delivered by Hanwha Life's AI Division and external experts, offering them insights into the latest financial technology trends.
The participants later visited Korea University and Sogang University, where they attended special lectures by Professor Jang Ho Kim of the Graduate School of Management of Technology at Korea University and Professor Yoo Shin Jung of the Business School at Sogang University, as well as campus tours that offered academic inspiration.
In the latter part of the program, participants will join "A Night of FuturePlus," an event where they will share their experiences from the training and discuss the future direction of FinTech development in Vietnam.
This training program was organized as part of FuturePlus, Hanwha Life's financial and ICT talent development and community financial literacy initiative in Vietnam, implemented since last year in collaboration with local universities, government agencies, and Chorogusan for children.
Through its FuturePlus initiative, Hanwha Life has established a virtuous cycle that enables local youth to strengthen their global financial competencies while contributing to enhancing financial literacy and the development of the FinTech industry in their communities.
Since last year, the company has introduced a FinTech major at the Vietnam–Korea University of Information and Communication Technology (VKU), sponsored the Vietnam Informatics Olympiad with the addition of a new AI track, and has continued various programs focused on talent development and enhancing financial literacy in local communities, including the Finance Mentor Program.
Suk Hyun Lim, Executive Director and Head of Corporate Planning Division at Hanwha Life, said, "We hope this training program in South Korea will serve as a valuable opportunity for outstanding FinTech talents in Vietnam to explore practical career and entrepreneurial paths." He added, "Hanwha Life will continue to support young talents so that they can contribute to improving financial literacy in their communities through the knowledge and experience they have gained."
