KOTRA Hosts 'Japan Advanced Sobujang Companies Korea Entry Strategy Seminar'

[Asia Economy Reporter Jeong Hyunjin] On the 13th, KOTRA will hold an online seminar titled 'Japan Advanced Materials, Parts, and Equipment (SoBuJang) Companies' Strategy for Entering the Korean Market' targeting Japanese semiconductor and display companies.

At this seminar, representatives from KOTRA Invest Korea, Citigroup, Korea Display Industry Association, Chungcheongnam-do, and others will serve as speakers to present on △Korean investment environment and policy changes △Semiconductor and display industry outlook △Local government investment environment.

With over 320 pre-registered participants, Japanese corporate officials are showing strong interest in investing in Korea. Amid rapidly changing industrial environments due to the normalization of non-face-to-face interactions caused by COVID-19, the U.S.'s decoupling policy toward China, and semiconductor supply shortages, the importance of semiconductors and displays in the global value chain (GVC) is increasing.

Jang Sanghyun, CEO of KOTRA Invest Korea, said, "We plan to make every effort to proactively attract companies with advanced SoBuJang technologies to Korea," adding, "We hope this seminar will strengthen cooperation between Korean and Japanese companies."
