Veyond Partners arranged the insightful journey to Korean Digital Media for our group of Norwegian journalists and editors to Korea in an impressive way.
Yunho Chung, Managing Partner of Veyond Partners, is clearly very well connected in the Korean telecom and media industry. He also possesses expert views
of the current status of - and on the future of mobile development, and the use of broadband and wireless communication in real business. On the more private
side, he is also a warm and outgoing person you can trust! I can definitely recommend Yunho Chung both as a service provider and as a business partner
Associate Director, Staale De Lange Kofoed
Yunho is an extremely bright and dedicated person who runs a great company with great people. He is an excellent mentor for his young collaborators. His
wonderful vision about how human capital should be valued in the consulting business is exemplary. Moreover, Yunho is incredibly well connected in the
Korean industry, which makes him an excellent contact to have in Seoul
