Incheon biotechnology workforce development

Overview

Incheon’s biotechnology sector is focusing on specialized workforce development to support its growing industrial ecosystem. An initial survey of 119 local biotech companies revealed a significant demand for advanced training for experienced workers, particularly in ‘white biotechnology’ involving eco-friendly materials, polymer processes, and smart bio-foundry operations.

To address these needs, the Bio-process Training Center in Songdo has commenced full operations. Located at the Yonsei University International Campus, the center utilizes a 42 billion KRW investment to provide theory and practical training following Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards. The facility has already trained thousands of individuals through programs like the Yonsei University K-NIBRT, aiming to support major regional players such as Samsung Biologics and Celltrion.
