B.Grimm Collaborates with the Prestigious Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra to Elevate Thailand’s Musical Prowess to World-Class Excellence. The Momentous Collaboration Marks B.Grimm’s 145 Years of Compassionate Business Presence in Thailand.
In commemorating the 145th anniversary of doing business with compassion in Thailand, B.Grimm underscores its commitment to continuous support for music activities, particularly in elevating Thai classical bands to world-class recognition.
This aligns seamlessly with B.Grimm’s enduring business philosophy of “Doing business with compassion for the Development of Civilisation in Harmony with Nature,” a guiding principle that the company has consistently prioritized.
A standout event this year was the collaboration with the Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra (SPO), a world-class philharmonic orchestra from South Korea which was established in 1948. B.Grimm has taken on the role of the primary sponsor for the “Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra Park Concert 2023” in South Korea, organized by the SPO band at the end of August 2023. Following this collaboration, in November 2023, B.Grimm extended an invitation to the SPO band to curate a special performance, delivering a musical tribute in celebration of the “145 years of B.Grimm” anniversary.
The show’s highlights were nothing short of a remarkable musical phenomenon, as the SPO band arranged a gathering of esteemed classical musicians including David Yi, Sungyong Ueom, Yeonkyung Joo, Minjung Kim, Mikyung Kim, Yongkwa Kim, Jooeun Lee, Joseph Yosub Lim, Yejin Kim, Eunmu Cha, and Seungho Chang. This distinguished ensemble was joined by exceptionally talented autistic children, namely Junhyung Park, Hyeongjun Park, Yunjeong Choi, Jongwon Ryu, and Jeonghyeon Lee, along with Rinkyung Hong. Together, they delivered a captivating performance, presenting a specially crafted music performance as a heartfelt gift for B.Grimm. Also, it left a lasting impression on the attendees.
Over the years, B.Grimm has consistently placed importance on art, music, and sports. The company has a strong commitment to nurturing and supporting communities of all sizes, contributing to their advancement not only in scientific pursuits but also in the domain of art. In the realm of music, B.Grimm has served as a main supporter of the Royal Bangkok Symphony Orchestra (RBSO) for over two decades. The company is dedicated to creating opportunities for both youth and the general public, ensuring consistent access to performances by world-class artists and music directors. The objective is to enhance the skills and unlock the full potential of the RBSO, aspiring to achieve world-class musical excellence and is recognized on an international scale.
In addition to the collaborative efforts and musical partnerships in South Korea, on the business front, B.Grimm Power Public Company Limited, one of the largest private power producers in Thailand, with a vision of “Empowering the World Compassionately,” is actively expanding its investments in South Korea, particularly in renewable energy power plant projects. This strategic initiative aligns with B.Grimm Power’s goal of increasing the share of its renewable energy production in the future.
In the closing days of May 2023, B.Grimm Power Korea Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary under the umbrella of B.Grimm Power, acquired shares in Saemangeum Sebit Power Company Limited. This strategic move represents a significant investment in a solar power plant project situated in South Korea, boasting an installed capacity of 98.99 megawatts.
In late 2022, B.Grimm Power Korea Limited entered into a contract to invest in an offshore wind power project in South Korea. The combined capacity of these projects is 1,030.6 megawatts. This strategic move is deemed crucial for the collaborative development of the renewable energy sector in South Korea, aligning seamlessly with B.Grimm Power’s strategy to expand its footprint in stable and sustainable energy ventures across Asia.
Moreover, this initiative contributes to the company’s long-term commitment to achieving net zero carbon emissions.
