Daejeon City aims to foster 100 listed companies by 2030 by establishing a virtuous cycle of corporate growth from startup to listing.

As part of this plan, on the 2nd, Daejeon City signed a 'Daejeon Promising Companies Listing Support Business Agreement' with the Korea Exchange and KAIST to cooperate in operating a corporate listing (IPO) support center and jointly developing customized support programs according to the timing of listings.

Han Sun-hee, Director of the Strategic Business Promotion Office of Daejeon City, said, "We are pleased that our efforts to discover promising local companies and activate listings have led to visible results," adding, "We will continue to make more proactive and aggressive efforts from two perspectives: supporting existing listed companies and discovering new listed companies."
