According to the province on October 22, this expo was organized to promote the growth and industrialization of social service jobs and to explore the development direction of future-oriented welfare industries that incorporate advanced technologies. Building on last year's inaugural event, this year’s collaboration with Jeonbuk National University has further strengthened its expertise and effectiveness.

The event is co-organized by six institutions: Jeonbuk Social Service Institute, Jeonbuk Branch of the Korea Local Self-Sufficiency Center Association, Jeonbuk Association of Vocational Rehabilitation Facilities for the Disabled, Jeonbuk Branch of the Korea Senior Club Association, Korea Association of Standard Workplaces for the Disabled, and Jeonbuk Branch of the Korea Employment Agency for the Disabled.

Under the slogan "Social Service Jobs, Growing Together!" the expo emphasizes that the social service industry can achieve growth through solidarity and cooperation.

At the expo venue, more than 60 booths for exhibitions, promotions, and hands-on experiences have been set up, allowing attendees to directly experience innovative social service cases that combine welfare and technology, such as AI care services and smart healthcare.

There will also be "Job Counseling" booths targeting various job-seeking groups, including seniors, people with disabilities, and middle-aged individuals, providing practical employment information and tailored consulting services.

No Hongseok, Vice Governor for Administrative Affairs of Jeonbuk Province, stated, "Jeonbuk is a leading region in the industrialization of social services, discovering various models of cooperation between the public and private sectors. We will actively support the establishment of social services as a regionally based industry that residents can truly experience, using this expo as a stepping stone."
