Since its inception in July 2023, the Corporate Attraction Strategy Meeting has established itself as an important platform to systematize policies for revitalizing the local economy and enhance their feasibility, achieving various results.

First, to utilize the Camp Jackson site, continuous proposals were made to central and related institutions, resulting in the revision of development restriction zone guidelines. Additionally, height restrictions within the cultural heritage radius were eased, significantly improving the conditions for companies to settle in the Yonghyeon Industrial Complex. Consequently, a data center in the Yonghyeon Industrial Complex received a building permit in July last year and is scheduled to begin construction in 2026.

Moreover, the Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) Northern Gyeonggi Regional Headquarters completed its relocation to Uijeongbu in June last year. Furthermore, to promote mutual growth between companies and the region, six business agreements were signed, attracting investments worth approximately 550 billion KRW.

In this meeting, discussions on this year’s tasks led to plans to carry out corporate attraction activities with goals such as △ devising measures to resolve overlapping regulations in the overconcentration control zone △ holding customized on-site explanation sessions for companies △ promoting designation as an economic free zone △ advancing the modernization of the Yonghyeon Industrial Complex △ creating a pedestrian-friendly street in the Haengbok-ro commercial district.

Mayor Kim Dong-geun stated, “The Corporate Attraction Strategy Meeting has played an important role beyond a simple discussion forum, laying the foundation for Uijeongbu City’s economic growth,” and added, “In 2025, through tailored strategies, we hope to create a policy environment that companies can trust and do our best to establish Uijeongbu as a hub for future industries.”

Based on the results of this meeting, Uijeongbu City plans to further accelerate corporate attraction and local economic growth.
