Busan Metropolitan City Recruits Participants for “Small Business Management Strategy Consulting”

내용

Busan Metropolitan City, led by Acting Mayor Kim Kyung-duk, together with the Busan Economic Promotion Agency, announced today (May 11) that it is recruiting participants for the “Small Business Management Strategy Consulting” program aimed at stabilizing management and strengthening the competitiveness of local small businesses.

The “Small Business Management Strategy Consulting” program dispatches professional consultants to business sites to diagnose overall management issues and provide customized consulting tailored to each business sector and management situation.

The program offers support in six fields: general management, public relations and marketing, artificial intelligence (AI) utilization, labor management, tax and accounting, and HACCP certification. To help businesses respond to changes in the digital market environment, Busan Metropolitan City newly added the “AI utilization” category this year.

Reflecting applicants’ needs, the City will provide one-on-one matching between small business owners and experts, and matched consultants will visit business sites directly to deliver customized consulting services.

In addition, consultant portfolios for all six fields will be disclosed in advance so applicants can choose their preferred field and consultant.

Last year, one company participating in the public relations and marketing category achieved notable results through the consulting program, reducing content production costs by 85 percent and shortening image production time by 70 percent.

Eligible applicants include small business owners currently operating businesses in Busan and prospective entrepreneurs residing in Busan. Applications can be submitted starting today (May 11) through the Busan Small Business Support Center website at bsbsc.kr.

Participants will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, and recruitment may close early once the budget is exhausted.

For more information, applicants may visit the Busan Small Business Support Center website or contact the Busan Economic Promotion Agency at 1833-3665.

Kim Bong-cheol, Assistant Mayor of Digital Economy Office, stated, “We hope this program will provide practical assistance to small business owners struggling with high prices and high interest rates in overcoming management difficulties,” adding, “We encourage strong interest and active participation from Busan’s small business community.”
