This event has been organized to bring together local industry, academia, and research institutions to share the year's achievements in the digital (AI) sector, and to strengthen the capabilities and cooperation base of the digital industry. The event is hosted by the province and co-organized by six institutions: Gangwon Technopark, Gangwon Information and Culture Industry Promotion Agency, Wonju Future Industry Promotion Institute, Gangneung Science and Industry Promotion Agency, Gangwon ICT Convergence Research Institute, and Kangwon National University.

The opening ceremony will be held at 1:00 p.m. on November 27, with around 300 participants including the Governor of Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province, ICT companies, Gangwon software promotion agencies, universities, and local government officials, who will explore the direction of digital innovation in the province together.

'Gangwon Digital Super Week' is significant as it is the first integrated event to unify previously dispersed and individually organized digital events by each institution, thereby improving operational efficiency and expanding the impact of achievements. This year's theme, 'Artificial Intelligence Transformation (AX): Global City for Future Industries,' reflects Gangwon's commitment to becoming a global innovation city leading future industries based on artificial intelligence transformation (AX).

The event will go beyond the traditional focus on achievement reports, offering a variety of programs such as corporate achievement exhibitions, lectures and seminars, and networking opportunities, thereby expanding exchanges and collaboration between participating institutions and companies.

Starting with this event, Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province plans to select themes each year that reflect core policies and digital trends, and to host the event annually. Beginning in Chuncheon this year, the event will rotate among Wonju and Gangneung, aiming to spread the atmosphere of digital innovation throughout the province.
