Photo courtesy of HD Hyundai<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph\" data-paragraph-index=\"1\">Princess Anne of the United Kingdom, Sir Timothy Laurence, and British Ambassador to South Korea Colin Crooks visited the Ulsan headquarters of HD Hyundai Heavy Industries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph\" data-paragraph-index=\"2\">According to HD Hyundai Heavy Industries on the 14th, Chairman Kisun Chung of HD Hyundai, Vice Chairman Lee Sang-kyun of HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, President Joo Won-ho, and other executives met with Princess Anne&#8217;s delegation. They introduced the company&#8217;s world-class shipbuilding technology and competitiveness, and exchanged views on ways to strengthen cooperation between the shipbuilding and marine industries of South Korea and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph\" data-paragraph-index=\"3\">The visit took place as the Government of the United Kingdom is pushing to develop its shipbuilding and marine industries. Princess Anne toured HD Hyundai Heavy Industries&#8217; ship and special-purpose vessel construction sites, as well as its engine plant, to see its shipbuilding capabilities firsthand. She also received an explanation of the company&#8217;s cooperation with British defense firms such as Rolls-Royce and Beaufort.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph\" data-paragraph-index=\"4\">Rolls-Royce has worked with HD Hyundai Heavy Industries since 2012, when the two companies partnered on a South Korean Navy frigate project. Rolls-Royce supplies the MT30 gas turbine, a key propulsion system, while HD Hyundai Heavy Industries integrates and delivers it as a propulsion package. Beaufort, a company that supplies survival equipment for ship crews, has also maintained cooperation with HD Hyundai Heavy Industries since 2013, after supplying life-saving equipment for submarines.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph\" data-paragraph-index=\"5\">At the meeting, Chairman Chung said, &#8220;The United Kingdom is not just a partner country, but a special partner that has been with HD Hyundai since its beginning,&#8221; adding, &#8220;Based on HD Hyundai&#8217;s top-tier technology and shipbuilding capabilities, we will help support the development of the British shipbuilding and marine industries.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph\" data-paragraph-index=\"6\">Kim So-hyung, compact@sportschosun.com<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<\/p>\n<p class=\"reporter\">This article has been translated by GripLabs Mingo AI.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportschosun.com\/life\/2026-07-14\/202607140100089830005638\" hreflang=\"ko-KR\" rel=\"alternate nofollow noopener\" aria-label=\"View original Korean article\" target=\"_blank\">&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\uc6d0\ubb38\ubcf4\uae30&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t(View Original Korean Article)&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportschosun.com\/en\/culture\/2026-07-14\/202607140100089800005636\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u2018From overseas discounts to free subscriptions to reading platforms: Card companies roll out a variety of services and events for the vacation season\u2019<\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportschosun.com\/en\/culture\/2026-07-14\/202607140100089440005620\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u2018Samyang Corporation to Participate in International Food Technology Expo &#8216;IFT 2026&#8217;&#8230; Unveils Crystalline Dietary Fiber Brand\u2019<\/a>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; \u25c7Princess Anne of the United Kingdom and HD Hyundai Chairman Kisun Chung shake hands.
