Gyeonggi-do Opens 'Online Consultation' to Unblock Export Routes Blocked by COVID-19

[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Gyeonggi Province will hold an online video consultation meeting to support overseas export companies.

On the 9th, Gyeonggi Province announced that it will hold an online video consultation meeting on the 10th at the Sono Calm Hotel in Goyang for companies participating in the export companies' online exhibition hall to support export channels for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the province, which have been contracted due to COVID-19.

Thirty-five SMEs from the province, which joined the online exhibition hall through an open recruitment in May, will participate in the consultation meeting.

The participating companies will introduce their products to 25 buyers from 14 countries in ASEAN, Latin America, Europe, and other regions, using online video consultation equipment installed at each company's business site or at the Sono Calm Hotel in Goyang, and conduct export consultations.

In particular, the province will deploy interpreters and trade experts on site to support SMEs in conducting smooth export negotiations and contract signings.

Ryu Gwang-yeol, Director of the Economic Office of the province, emphasized, "As the untact culture spreads due to COVID-19, the trade base using online platforms will be strengthened. We will continuously discover non-face-to-face marketing fields through online channels to help local companies prepare for the post-COVID-19 era."

The province opened the export companies' online exhibition hall for the first time this year to support SMEs in introducing their products to overseas buyers, conducting export consultations, and making business proposals without participating in overseas exhibitions.
