据韩联社报道，SK集团15日表示，集团会长崔泰源于14日在“2026年CEO研讨会”上发表主旨演讲。崔泰源表示：“我们必须打破现有业务框架，重新将自身定义为一家AI公司。”他还呼吁集团各成员公司突破现有业务领域，在尚未发掘的机遇中寻找新的定位，构建从AI服务延伸至Token经济的AI飞轮体系。 他补充说：“在AI时代，任何一家企业都无法独自完成所有事情。通过与全球合作伙伴开展开放式合作，提升自身能力和发展速度至关重要。”AI飞轮是指一种良性循环：半导体竞争力推动AI工厂业务增长，AI工厂的扩张又进一步创造能源和AI服务需求。 SK集团计划进一步完善这一良性循环，并在“Token经济”市场发挥主导作用。在这一市场中，AI算力和服务将成为可交易的核心资源。集团管理层一致认为，应围绕AI半导体、基础设施和能源三大支柱，主动发掘并推动新领域的业务发展，各自承担相应角色。此外，集团还进一步明确了增强基础实力、支撑AI飞轮运转的具体措施。管理层计划继续推进旨在增强现有业务竞争力的“投资组合再平衡2.0”，并依据以现金创造能力为基础的资本配置标准，在保持财务稳健与开展未来投资之间实现平衡。
