Infrastructure and plant construction
Project Owners worldwide gathered in one place with Korean Builders
The Global Infrastructure Cooperation
Conference(GICC) 2014 held, through which Korean companies' making inroads into
overseas markets will be accelerated!
□ The Global
Infrastructure Cooperation Conference(GICC) 2014 will be held during
September 17-19, 2014, in Seoul, hosted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure
and Transport of the Republic of Korea(MOLIT) and organized by the International
Contractors Association of Korea(ICAK).
□ Participated by 38
entities including government ministries, public corporations, and policy
financial institutions, from 28 countries worldwide, the conference will be a
venue where prospective major projects will be introduced and one-on-one
meetings between the Project Owners and Korean builders will take place.
ㅇ Held at the largest scale ever,
since its inception, owing to the growing global stature of Korean builders in
the world (ranked number 6 by ENR for two consecutive years), this year's
conference boasts more high ranking officials and higher level meetings.
ㅇ In particular, instead of being just
a series of project introduction presentations, this conference will serve as a
place where global coexistence and advancement of overseas construction will be
achieved by covering a wide array of topics, including explorations on financial
resources mobilization methods in an effective manner through such channels as
multilateral development banks.
□ With key high ranking
officials who will take part in the conference, MOLIT will hold bilateral
meetings and signing ceremonies of MOUs so as to strongly support Korean
enterprises' prospects for winning contracts in those countries.
ㅇ In addition, an overseas
construction history zone and a PR pavilion which will include MOLIT's seven
sub-entities will be built to welcome the participants by displaying the
excellence of Korean construction technologies and potential for further
development.
□ A person related to
MOLIT commented, "The GICC will not only provide ample opportunities for Korean
builders to promote their excellence in their construction technologies but also
will help them forge valuable relations with contract issuing entities
worldwide, helping them secure more contracts going forward in their interested
markets overseas."
