(Co-CEOs Park Kang-soo and Choi Deok-hyung) announced on the 14th that it has published its &#8216;2025 Sustainability Report,&#8217; which outlines its 2024 ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) performance and sustainability management strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In October 2021, GOLFZON established its ESG Committee and formed a dedicated organization for ESG risk management, through which it sets, executes, and reviews initiatives for each operating department while practicing transparent information disclosure. Pursuing new value through sustainable management that considers customers, society, and the environment, the company has now published its fourth sustainability report since the first edition in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GOLFZON&#8217;s &#8216;2025 Sustainability Report&#8217; centers on its sustainability management strategy and the key highlights of its 2024 ESG performance, including climate-related financial disclosures, win-win cooperation with stakeholders such as support for stores affected by flooding, and expanded investment in information security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In particular, this year&#8217;s report presents climate-related financial disclosures for the first time, reflecting the recommendation of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) to transparently disclose information such as the financial risks posed by climate change. GOLFZON used the climate change scenarios of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) and the IEA (International Energy Agency) to assess the impact of climate change on its business and disclosed mid- to long-term targets and management indicators for sustainable management. The introduction of these climate-related financial disclosures goes beyond mere information disclosure, serving as part of the company&#8217;s responsible response to the climate crisis and its commitment to carbon neutrality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GOLFZON is also focusing on expanding investment in the area of information security. Through new investment more than five times that of 2023, the company operates systems for APT (hacking) defense and automated security analysis response. In addition, by increasing its overall information security budget by 250%, it has reinforced specialized personnel\u2014including the appointment of a Chief Privacy Officer (CPO)\u2014and expanded the scope of its information security consulting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, based on a double materiality assessment, the company disclosed its performance on key issues across the areas of the environment (efforts to respond to climate change, reducing energy use, and expanding renewable energy), society (strengthening employee capabilities and improving the work environment for work-life balance), and governance (enhancing the transparency and expertise of its governance structure).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choi Deok-hyung, Chairman of GOLFZON&#8217;s ESG Committee, said, \u201cGOLFZON has led the development of Korea&#8217;s golf industry by creating a new culture in the form of screen golf, and alongside its business expansion it has consistently devoted itself to ESG management for sustainable growth. Going forward, as a global golf platform company, we will do our utmost to become a company that fulfills its social responsibilities with consideration for customers, society, and the climate change environment, grounded in our management philosophy of &#8216;creating new enjoyment and benefits.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GOLFZON Co., Ltd.
