[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Daeseop] "We will make South Korea leap forward as a digital powerhouse leading the world, with innovative ventures and startups as the main force."


On the 10th, Park Young-sun, Minister of SMEs and Startups, stated this on Facebook regarding President Moon Jae-in's special national address on the 3rd anniversary of his inauguration, saying, "The Ministry of SMEs and Startups will lead the great transition to a digital economy and a smart Korea."


Minister Park emphasized, "While listening to President Moon Jae-in's 3rd anniversary national address today, this was the phrase that struck my ears the most."


This refers to the most active sectors during the three years of the Moon Jae-in administration, where venture startups worked tirelessly to turn the crisis of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) into an opportunity, creating the COVID-19 map, mask map, elevating diagnostic kits to globally recognized K-quarantine standards, and increasing mask production through the introduction of smart factories.



Minister Park said, "Yes, now South Korea's innovative venture startups will be the main force, and the Ministry of SMEs and Startups will do its best to make South Korea leap forward as a digital powerhouse leading the world."
