Gyeonggi Province to Host 'Water Industry Development Forum' on 30th... Sharing Overseas Expansion Policies and More

Gyeonggi Province will host the "2025 Gyeonggi Province Water Industry Development Forum" on September 30 in the main conference room on the third floor of the Gyeonggi Convergence Town (Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation) in Gwanggyo, Suwon, in order to support the overseas expansion of water-related companies and strengthen their global competitiveness.

This forum has been organized to share government and provincial policies for supporting overseas expansion, and to explore practical overseas market entry strategies for local water companies through the achievements and success stories of overseas demonstration projects.

The forum will begin with an opening ceremony, followed by presentations on the government's overseas expansion support policies, an overview of the water market in Vietnam, successful case studies of water technology demonstration projects, and business consultations with overseas buyers.

In particular, a representative from the Can Tho City water resources authority in Vietnam will attend in person to present the current status of local water resource management and discuss opportunities for cooperation. Additionally, tailored one-on-one consultations between local water companies and overseas buyers will help to develop concrete overseas expansion strategies.

Previously, in April, Gyeonggi Province signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Soc Trang Province in Vietnam (now integrated into Can Tho City) and has since supported local water companies in applying water quality monitoring technology in local rivers for demonstration purposes.

Through these efforts, water companies in Gyeonggi Province have been able to verify their technological capabilities in overseas settings and establish a foothold for entering the Vietnamese and Southeast Asian markets. The forum will also discuss the outcomes of these demonstration projects and strategies for further expansion.

Yoon Deokhee, head of the Gyeonggi Province Water Resources Headquarters, stated, "This forum provides new opportunities for water companies that are struggling to expand beyond the domestic market," adding, "Through business consultations with overseas buyers and other activities, we aim to achieve tangible results and create a crucial turning point for the province’s water industry to advance into the global market."
