Hoban Group’s stake in Hanjin KAL, the holding company of Hanjin Group, gained an estimated 1.1 trillion won ($822 million) in market value this month through Friday amid sharp share price swings fueled by speculation over a potential battle for control. Its value also rose by about 265.2 billion won from Nov. 4, when Hoban was disclosed as the company’s largest shareholder.

Personal information of participants of a government-backed startup program has been leaked following a cyberattack against a company supporting the program, the startups ministry said Friday. The artificial intelligence solutions company detected a hacking attack on Wednesday, which compromised the personal data of 20,028 people, including 818 participants of the startup support program, according to the ministry. The leaked information includes the names, phone numbers and email addresses of service users. The data leak took place just months after personal information of 5,000 participants of the startup program was leaked in June in a similar hacking attack. The ministry had announced measures in July to strengthen security for the program and prevent future attacks.

For years, Jensen Huang was more than Nvidia’s CEO – he was a key figure driving the artificial intelligence boom, parlaying close ties with Asian chip foundries and aggressive financial backing into an unprecedented global buildout of data centres. Following his sudden resignation, the industry is confronting two immediate questions: without Huang’s personal relationships in Taiwan and South Korea, can Nvidia defend its priority access to scarce chipmaking and memory supply? And will it...

Hoban Group is facing a strategic dilemma over its next move in its ongoing ownership battle with Hanjin Group Chairman Cho Won-tae, as sharp swings in Hanjin KAL’s stock make it increasingly costly for either side to keep buying shares to maintain the top shareholder position. Hoban became Hanjin KAL’s largest shareholder on Nov. 4 after increasing its stake to 20.69 percent, narrowly overtaking the 20.58 percent held by Cho and his affiliates. The shift followed a surge in Hanjin KAL shares. The stock has since become even more volatile. It hit a record high of 245,000 won on Tuesday before plunging to an intraday low of 185,000 won on Thursday and closing at 203,500 won on Friday. The sharp swings have added to the financial burden on both sides as they continue to accumulate shares in their battle for control. Hoban has three possible options for its next move. The first is to sell its stake through a block deal. Hoban could negotiate with Cho around next year's annual shareholders meeting over whether to halt further purchases and participate in Hanjin KAL's board. If an agreement

In 2019, Ubisoft invited me to Paris. As I strolled through Station F, the sprawling startup campus that French billionaire Xavier Niel opened in 2017, I ran into a name I never expected to see nearly 8,000 km from home: Kerala Ventures.
