At this event, products from three Yongin-based companies?CreaCube, JM Green, and E&B Solution?were selected as 40 excellent products chosen by Gyeonggi Province and the Gyeonggi Economic Science Promotion Agency.

The city attracted attention by dispatching 34 'export interns' composed of students from Dankook University and Hankuk University of Foreign Studies to support local companies participating in the exhibition. Before the exhibition, the export interns held pre-meetings with participating companies to discuss product sales plans and supported export consultations with overseas buyers during the exhibition period.

Starting next year, the city plans to expand the program by dispatching export interns not only to domestic exhibitions but also to overseas exhibitions to support SMEs in developing overseas markets.

A city official said, "We will expand support such as dispatching export interns and subsidizing exhibition participation fees and booth rental fees so that local SMEs can participate in various domestic and international exhibitions to introduce their products and develop sales channels."
