Kim Byung-hwan, Chairman of the Financial Services Commission, stated that the market uncertainty that has persisted since the December 3 emergency martial law situation must be resolved quickly.
On the 13th, Chairman Kim visited IBK Changgong Daejeon and met with representatives of five IBK Changgong companies at the 'Chungcheong Region Venture Companies Meeting,' saying, "We are making our best efforts to promote policies for companies."
IBK Changgong is IBK Industrial Bank's startup incubation platform supporting startup companies. Since its opening, IBK Changgong has supplied over 2 trillion won in investment and loan funds to 925 startup companies and provided more than 13,000 mentoring, consulting, and IR sessions.
The company representatives attending today's meeting shared success stories of growth through IBK Changgong support and requested active promotion of policies to support regional ventures and startups in the future.
Chairman Kim explained, "We are expanding various region-specific venture platforms to revitalize regional startups and ventures," adding, "Since last September, through the Korea Development Bank's Southern Investment Headquarters, we have been actively expanding investment operations in Yeongho and Nam regions and supporting new industries. Next year, we plan to expand large-scale startup and venture incubation spaces similar to Mapo Front One in Chungnam and establish an investment finance center in the Chungcheong area."
