Five companies based in Magok, including LG CNS, Robotis, Innosimulation, Exem, and Why Not, as well as nine companies affiliated with the Seoul Startup Hub M+ Representatives Council, participated in the agreement.


Based on this agreement, the participating organizations will jointly operate the "Magok Research Town Academy," a project to foster future talent in Fourth Industrial Revolution fields such as artificial intelligence (AI), big data, robotics, and drones. Under the agreement, each company will provide practical, hands-on experience opportunities necessary for nurturing future talent and share materials and information required for education, thereby supporting both human and material resources.


The district will provide administrative and financial support necessary for operating the "Magok Research Town Academy" so that more local students and young people can receive education in Fourth Industrial Revolution fields. To ensure the project's success, the district plans to strengthen the foundation for cooperation among companies, design educational programs for the Fourth Industrial Revolution by the end of this year, and begin operating the "Magok Research Town Academy" in March 2026.



Jin Kyohun, Mayor of Gangseo District, stated, "The Magok Industrial Complex is home to a concentration of advanced industry companies in fields such as AI, bio, and mobility. By combining the diverse capabilities of these companies, we will do our utmost to successfully launch the 'Magok Research Town Academy' and open up a better future."
