Busan has experienced various urban development stages and presents a broad spectrum of industrial environments covering from manufacturing, tourism & MICE, ICTs, multimedia contents, and so on. The urban development in this area has been made by interactions and moves of domestic and foreign people with different backgrounds. In response to the challenges and changes of contemporary societies, Busan pursues to be a green smart city to attain sustainable development and transform citizens’ lives with partner countries for a better future.
BFIC consistently applies for bids and commissioning projects sponsored by donor agencies like KOICA and KOFICE in cooperation with local institutes and individuals. It leads to provide opportunities for those local actors to join the development cooperation. Satisfying the needs of the partner countries, BFIC tries to propose and implement the projects by using local specialized expertise and resources and commits to enhancing Korea’s development cooperation with local-specialized contents and approaches.
