According to the Union of International Associations statistics released in August 2006, Korea held 185 international meetings in 2005 and was ranked 14th worldwide in the number of international meetings held. Its capital city, Seoul, held 109 international meetings in 2005 and was placed 9th worldwide in the number of international meetings held.

Korea is working harder than ever to make your international event become a successful reality. We look forward to welcoming you, your friends, family, and partners, and giving you a chance to discover the dynamism of Korea!
The convention industry has become one of the most promising industries domestically. A convention promotion law was enacted on December 30, 1996, and an amendment was later added to it on August 6. 2003. The act designates and fosters development of “convention cities”, facilitates construction of convention centers, and guarantees national support and quality control for successful conventions to be held in Korea. Four convention cities have been designated nationwide: Seoul, Busan, Daegu, and Jeju-do. |
