Busan Metropolitan City (Mayor Park Heong-joon) and the Busan Economic Promotion Agency (President Song Bok-cheol) announced that they will hold the “2026 First-Half Expert Lecture Series for Small Business Owners” at 3:00 p.m. on July 6 in the City Hall Grand Auditorium for small business owners, prospective entrepreneurs, and interested citizens.

The lecture series has been organized to share successful brand case studies and practical management know-how from industry experts, helping participants respond to the management challenges caused by rising prices and rapidly evolving consumer trends.

The lecture will be delivered by Chef Lee Won-il, CEO of Lee Won-il Table and an active restaurant industry consultant.

As an owner-chef with firsthand experience in menu development, brand planning, and store operations, Lee participated as a star consultant in the “On-Site Small Business Problem Solver Support Project” promoted by Busan Metropolitan City and the Busan Economic Promotion Agency in 2024, providing customized on-site diagnostics for major local businesses.

Drawing on his understanding of local commercial districts gained through that project, Lee will present a lecture titled “Where Is Today’s Restaurant Industry Heading?” introducing the latest trends and success strategies in the food service industry.

The lecture is open to all interested Busan citizens, including small business owners and prospective entrepreneurs. Applications can be submitted through the Busan Small Business Comprehensive Support Center website (bsbsc.kr) until July 6.

Participants will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, and registration may close early if venue capacity is reached.

Additional information is available through the Busan Small Business Comprehensive Support Center website or by contacting the Busan Economic Promotion Agency at 1833-3665.

Kim Bong-cheol, Assistant Mayor of Digital Economy Office, stated, “We hope this lecture will provide practical assistance to small business owners who continue to support the foundation of the local economy despite challenging business conditions,” adding, “We encourage strong interest and active participation from Busan’s small business community.”
