Busan Port Authority "Launched the Busan Port Marine Industry Cluster"

Setting Detailed Operational Directions for Busan Port Marine Industry Cluster

Busan Port Authority is accelerating the Busan Port Marine Industry Cluster project. The Marine Industry Cluster is a zone created around idle port facilities with the purpose of concentrating and promoting the convergence of marine industries and related marine businesses.

On the 10th, Busan Port Authority confirmed the introduction and operation of three government-supported project facilities, which are being promoted in collaboration with Busan City, after completing infrastructure such as roads, parks, and parking lots in 2022 by utilizing the old Uam Pier. Among the three government-supported project facilities, the Busan Knowledge Industry Center and the eco-friendly hydrogen fuel ship research and development (R&D) platform were completed last year and are currently in operation. The Busan Marina Biz Center is currently under construction.

BPA is conducting the "Study on Establishing and Implementing Strategies for Attracting Companies to the Busan Port Marine Industry Cluster" to operate the remaining industrial facility site of 61,591㎡. Based on the results of the study, which will be completed this month, detailed operational directions will be shared in the first quarter, and an attraction briefing session will be held to directly listen to the requirements of companies wishing to move in.

Kang Jun-seok, President of Busan Port Authority, said, “We expect to create synergy effects through coexistence and collaboration with government-supported projects and contribute to the revitalization of the marine industry and marine leisure within the region,” adding, “We will accelerate the activation of the Busan Port Marine Industry Cluster operation to contribute to the development of the marine industry and the creation of quality jobs.”
