Supporting SME AI Adoption... Seoul Central and Southern AI Cooperative Offers Free Consulting

Around 1,000 Technical Experts to Provide On-site Support

The Seoul Central and Southern AI Business Cooperative (Seoul Central and Southern AI Cooperative) announced on September 4 that it will offer "free AI consulting" to the cooperative and its member companies.

This initiative has been prepared to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that wish to adopt artificial intelligence (AI) but face difficulties. It will proceed by diagnosing issues in workplace operations—such as production, sales, quality, inventory, and customer management—and then designing suitable AI solutions to address them.

To this end, the Seoul Central and Southern AI Cooperative is recruiting other cooperatives to participate in the "Industry-Specific Cooperative AI Introduction Support Consulting" program, and AI specialists will visit business sites directly to analyze each company’s challenges and work processes. A total of ten AI specialist companies affiliated with the cooperative, along with around 1,000 research and development (R&D) technical personnel, will take part in the project to support on-site diagnostics.

Choi Eunsu, Chairman of the Seoul Central and Southern AI Cooperative, stated, "SME AI transformation does not need to start with large-scale system implementation," adding, "The priority is to identify areas in the field where AI solutions can offer the greatest impact among problems that occur repeatedly."

Applications and inquiries regarding free consulting can be made through the Secretariat of the Seoul Central and Southern AI Cooperative.
