The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport will hold the '2024 Smart Construction Challenge' to discover and promote smart construction technologies that will drive innovation in the construction industry.


Now in its 5th year, the 'Smart Construction Challenge' is hosted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, with related public institutions sharing responsibilities to oversee competitions in five fields: safety management, complexes and housing, roads, railways, and Building Information Modeling (BIM).


In each of the five fields, the Grand Innovation Award (1 team per field, prize of 30 million KRW each) and the Public Institution Head Award (3 teams per field, prize of 10 million KRW each) will be presented.


Technologies that receive the Grand Innovation Award (Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport Award) will be broadly supported to ensure their utilization, including additional points when selecting smart construction small and medium enterprises, priority support for on-site technology demonstration, and assistance in opening sales channels within public institutions.


Additionally, the technologies awarded in this challenge will be exhibited at the '2024 Smart Construction EXPO' held at KINTEX from November 20 to 22.



Companies wishing to participate in the Smart Construction Challenge can download the application form from the Smart Construction Challenge website between August 2 and August 23, complete it, and submit it via email.
