Mayor Lee Jae-jun of Suwon and the Suwon city delegation will visit the United States and Japan from the 11th to the 21st to promote investment attraction from U.S. semiconductor companies and to co-host the "World Korean Business Convention."

During their visit to the U.S., the delegation will tour biotechnology collaboration complexes, urban regeneration industry sites, and startup ecosystems in New York, Danbury, and Boston, followed by an investment attraction briefing for U.S. semiconductor companies.

At the Cambridge Innovation Center in Boston, they will hold a meeting with Korean companies based at the center, review the center’s current status and operational methods, and promote Suwon’s support programs for corporate investment attraction.

They will also visit New York’s High Line Park, a successful urban regeneration case that transformed an old elevated railway into a park, to explore ways to apply this model to Suwon’s urban regeneration projects.

On the 18th, the delegation will move to Japan to attend the opening ceremony of the 24th World Representatives Convention and Export Consultation hosted by the World-OKTA, the largest overseas Korean economic organization, in Tokyo, together with Gyeonggi Province Governor Kim Dong-yeon.

Mayor Lee Jae-jun will deliver a keynote speech at this event.

The delegation will also visit the KOTRA Tokyo Trade Center to understand local demand trends and participate in the export consultation at the World Representatives Convention to explore overseas expansion strategies for Suwon companies before returning on the 21st.
