The city selected Forexim Co., Ltd. as the agency through an open bidding process and has finalized the overall operation plan for the event, including conference hall management, support for accommodation and transportation, on-site operations, and side events.

Starting with a kickoff briefing in early April, Yeosu City plans to accelerate preparations by sequentially establishing detailed implementation plans, managing participants, and conducting promotional activities.

In particular, the UN Climate Week in Yeosu will be held in conjunction with the Ministry of Climate, Energy and Environment's "Green Transformation (GX) International Week," and will be operated as an integrated international event that encompasses high-level meetings, policy forums, and industry- and region-based cooperation programs.

A Yeosu City official stated, "This Climate Week will serve as an important opportunity to showcase Korea's climate leadership to the international community," adding, "We will do our utmost to ensure the event is a successful international gathering through thorough preparations."

Meanwhile, the city expects that the event will draw approximately 14,000 visitors during the period and generate an economic impact of about 20 billion won for the local economy. It is also anticipated to strengthen global cooperation and enhance the international competitiveness of Korea's climate and energy industries.
