He added, "Immediately upon arrival, my first event was a meeting with AI companies, where we discussed their entry into the Chinese market. We also explored ways for Gyeonggi-based companies to participate in the NVIDIA Gyeonggi Growth program."


Governor Kim also shared some special connections with the business representatives accompanying him.


He said, "During the meeting, one company CEO brought his diploma and asked me to sign it. It turned out that he had received his master's degree from Ajou University when I was serving as its president. Another CEO surprised me by saying he is the son of my high school classmate."
