"Strengthening cooperation between domestic companies and global partners, and promoting local companies' eco-friendly technologies" is what the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy aim to achieve at the 18th Global Green Hub Korea forum, currently being held in Seoul.

"We hope that this year's forum serves as a platform to enable participants to see new business opportunities by sharing each country's policies and efforts for carbon reduction, as well as the success stories of international development banks."

The forum, which opened on Wednesday, seeks to provide a robust platform for eco-friendly and energy industry businesses, in alignment with the global trend of carbon reduction, to support the overseas expansion of domestic companies and the securing of crucial growth engines.

This key event provides networking opportunities, project briefings, and matchmaking for Korean and international businesses.

"Korea's leadership in environmental technology is an example that we admire where leaders are eager for cooperation that benefits both our people."

The scale of the projects presented by the overseas clients and buyers at this year's event amounts to a total of 8 billion dollars.

Key projects include the Bangladesh Water Supply and Sewerage Authority Water Treatment Project.

Over the course of three days, domestic companies will have the opportunity to actively promote the excellence of a variety of environmental and green technologies to potential overseas clients and buyers.
