The main projects include ▲discovering and nurturing promising growth companies ▲supporting R&D commercialization of SME cooperation projects ▲supporting smart factory promotion ▲supporting success strategy seminars and visits to excellent companies to enhance businesspeople's capabilities.

In particular, since the opening of the Economic Comprehensive Support Center in the Advanced 2 District industrial site in July last year, Buk-gu has resolved about 230 corporate complaints, secured 5 billion KRW in national and city funds, and played a key role in revitalizing the industrial complex by improving industrial complex infrastructure.
