NPIG plays a pivotal role in managing Boryung's investments across emerging sectors, with a notable focus on space-related ventures. Additionally, Jack serves as an advisor on multiple space committees under the Ministry of Science in South Korea. He is recognized as a prominent figure shaping South Korea's space strategy and has been invited to participate in prestigious space conferences, including the US-KOR Space Health Symposium and the National Space Policy Agency.

In alignment with Boryung's overarching vision of becoming a cornerstone in human health, Jack has spearheaded investment strategies geared toward space healthcare, attracting significant attention from both the public and private sectors in the United States and South Korea. Under Jack's guidance, NPIG has overseen and led strategic investments, notably serving as the Series C round lead investor in Axiom Space.
