Gyeongsangbuk-do industrial development initiatives

Overview

Gyeongsangbuk-do is pursuing various industrial development initiatives to modernize its regional economy. The province is establishing an industry-academic-research cooperation system to foster the ‘food halnyu’ (Korean food wave) industry, aiming to integrate AI, bio, and robotics into the food sector to support startups, exports, and tourism.

Simultaneously, the province and Gyeongju are working to transform the region into a global business hub. This effort focuses on future mobility, including electrification and AI-based autonomous driving, to assist local automotive parts manufacturers. Additionally, officials are working to develop a Small Modular Reactor (SMR) national industrial complex and expand high-tech manufacturing and MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) capabilities.
