The Jinju K-entrepreneurship International Forum, which marks its third anniversary this year, is being reborn as an entrepreneurship festival visited by people around the world with your love and passion for entrepreneurship.
Under the theme of entrepreneurship, the Jinju International Forum provides a special opportunity for entrepreneurs, scholars, experts, and young people from all over the world to come together to share their wisdom and experiences, and to share challenges and visions for the future.
The 「2025 Jinju K-Entrepreneurship International Forum」 is more important than ever We are here with you at a time of great uncertainty and change.
Climate change threatens human survival and the rapid development of advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence, is fundamentally reshaping our daily lives and industrial structures.
The wave of populism is undermining even the solidarity of the most democratic societies, and the spread of protectionism, instability in global supply chains, and reorganization of the international order called the New Cold War are making it difficult for countries around the world to cooperate and coexist.
We've entered the era of great transformation.
Challenges, innovation, integration and cooperation are urgently needed to overcome the challenges and challenges we face today. Above all, the role of entrepreneurship is important.
Reflecting this trend, this year's Jinju International Forum will hold an international discourse on common human challenges such as climate change and technological innovation, global governance for a sustainable future, multilateralism, responsible use of AI, international co-startup ecosystem, and people-centered entrepreneurship under the theme of "The Age of Global Transformation, the Role of Entrepreneurship."
The forum will bring together high-ranking government officials, representatives of international organizations, entrepreneurs, scholars, and young leaders from around the world, including the U.N. General Assembly Presidential Council, Columbus Mayor of Georgia, world university president, and global entrepreneurship experts, to explore new ways of cooperation and solidarity in the international community through entrepreneurship.
I hope that this forum, which will be held in Jinju, the capital of entrepreneurship in Korea, will provide insight and insight for a new leap forward from world-class scholars.
We sincerely welcome all of you who joined the "2025 Jinju K-entrepreneurship International Forum" and express your deep gratitude. Thank you
