[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] On the 5th, Choi Yeol-su, head of the Gyeongnam Regional Small and Medium Venture Business Administration, visited the first public rental-type knowledge industry center in Gyeongnam located in Jinju City, reviewed the current issues of supporting startup SMEs, and held a meeting with resident companies.

Jinju City established a Startup Support Team through an organizational restructuring last July and is focusing efforts on supporting startups and venture companies by attracting a One-person Creative Enterprise Support Center and Maker Space on the 1st and 2nd floors of the center.

Jinju is equipped with favorable conditions for the growth of regionally specialized industries (such as aerospace and bio) and startup companies, with institutions like Gyeongsang National University, the Korea Ceramic Technology Institute, and the Root Center of the Korea Institute of Industrial Technology.

Choi Yeol-su, head of the administration, stated, “To strengthen support for local startup companies, we will actively cooperate with Jinju City to further revitalize the Jinju Knowledge Industry Center.”
