There, he received a briefing from Gusun Park, Chairman of the Daegu-Gyeongbuk Medical Innovation Foundation(K-Medi Hub), on the status of tenant companies within the district and major ongoing projects, and toured key research and support facilities.
 
Sang-Ki Kang, Acting Commissioner of the DGFEZ, stated, “The Office of the Foreign Investment Ombudsman is a vital partner in resolving the difficulties faced by companies within our jurisdiction and supporting institutional improvements.” He added, “Moving forward, we will do our utmost to create an investment environment that foreign-invested companies can truly appreciate and to revitalize the attraction of foreign investment, based on close cooperation.”
