The major public contest projects selected in 2024 include △ Ultra-gap technology development and demonstration project for aerospace and defense sealant materials (total project cost 34.5 billion KRW) △ Support project for the development, equipment establishment, and commercialization of multi-image fusion diagnostic and therapeutic devices (15 billion KRW) △ Disaster safety industry promotion facility construction support (10 billion KRW) △ 2025 National Heritage Media Art Project (1.6 billion KRW) △ 2024 Youth Challenge Support Project (450 million KRW) △ Foreign Workers Regional Settlement Support Project (400 million KRW) △ 2024 Public Building Green Remodeling Support Project (150 million KRW), among others.
Mayor Na Dong-yeon stated, “With the financial situation expected to be difficult next year, competition among local governments for public contest project selection will become fierce. Since securing national and provincial funding is essential for the smooth progress of major pending projects, we will do our best to be selected for various government-run public contest projects and ensure thorough implementation of the selected projects.”
