Gyeongsan and Gyeongju, both major hub cities in North Gyeongsang Province, are strengthening regional competitiveness through, respectively, the launch of a large-scale venture capital fund and improved access to the metropolitan area.
On August 6, Gyeongsan City held a ceremony for the establishment of the 'IBKA-Ecopro Gyeongbuk Innovation Venture Fund.'
