BEI Corp has received official recognition from the Government of Korea as a leading entity in the 2025 Supply-Chain Stabilization Program.
The selection identifies organizations possessing mission-critical technologies deemed essential to national security and industrial competitiveness during a period of increasing global supply-chain volatility. As a result of this designation, BEI is now a priority recipient of the Government Supply-Chain Stabilization Fund, a national initiative valued at approximately USD 5–5.5 billion. This status provides the company with access to preferential support measures, including specialized financing programs, policy incentives, and export-import assistance.
Beyond supply-chain security, the company’s Anode-Free Lithium-Metal Battery (AF-LMB) technology has been named one of the Top 10 Industrial Technology R&D Achievements of 2025. This award emphasizes the industrial significance of the AF-LMB platform within the national research and development landscape. The technology is engineered for high energy density and reliable performance in extreme temperatures, targeting high-stakes applications such as defense Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), advanced robotics, and tactical energy storage systems (ESS).
The government’s endorsement validates BEI’s manufacturing readiness and supply reliability alongside its technical innovation. The company intends to leverage these recognitions to accelerate production capacity and advance localization strategies in major markets, including the United States and Europe.
Changdeuck Bae, CEO of BEI, stated, “Being selected as one of the Top 10 Industrial Technology R&D Achievements of 2025 is a meaningful milestone for BEI, recognizing the industrial significance and future potential of our AF-LMB technology. This recognition reflects the progress our team has made and strengthens our confidence as we broaden our global footprint and accelerate market expansion.
“Furthermore, being recognized by the government for our selection into the Supply-Chain Stabilization Program demonstrates that BEI is trusted not only for its technological capabilities but also for its readiness in manufacturing, supply stability, and scalability. These recognitions will support our efforts to attract investment, expand production capacity, and advance our global localization strategies in key markets such as the United States and Europe.”
