Development outline and composition of the future city

Metropolitan industrial complex ▷ 20㎢
  • Conveniently located at the heart of the Southeast Region's industrial belt, the complex will greatly contribute to boosting the national economy by establishing a world-class industrial base for mechanical parts materials.
  • Korea's status as a marine industry power will also be secured through the establishment of the marine industrial complex, offering multiple production, distribution, R&D and training functions, etc.
Metropolitan industrial complex
Classification Main Functions
Southeast Region specialized industry complex
  • Create a global supply base for fast-growing local specialized industries such as machine, shipbuilding equipment and automobile parts industries. (Transportation equipment cluster)
  • Cluster core parts materials industries (one of the new national growth engines) including environmentally friendly ('green') automobiles, high value-added vessels, solar batteries, fuel cells, etc.
convergence devices industrial complex
  • Cluster cutting-edge convergence devices industries that involve advanced materials, IT parts and state-of-the-art equipment (linked with aviation transport).
  • Take advantage of its location adjacent to Gimhae International Airport, and cluster production and maintenance facilities including aircraft parts, engines, etc.
Marine industrial complex
  • Develop cutting-edge marine structural design and building industries and the marine and harbor equipment manufacturing industry
  • Develop the marine leisure equipment (motorboats, yachts, personal watercraft, etc.), manufacturing industry, which is another future growth engine in Korea.
    ※ Work with marine leisure equipment centers, and small and medium shipbuilding technology institutes nearby.
  • Study research and teach the latest marine technology.
Foreign investment complex
  • Attract multi-national corporations and research institutes involved with specialized industries to the southeast region as a Key base of global production and research networks.
  • Reserve land areas for foreign investment companies, linked with free economic zones.
Logistics Complex ▷ 9㎢

  • A strategic point chosen by the Korean government to maximize the effects of FTAs.
  • Build a Eurasian Gateway in preparation for North Pole and transcontinental railway routes.
Logistic Complex
Classification Major Functions
Complex logistics assembly and processing complex
  • Establish a logistics complex comprised of top domestic logistics companies dealing with storage, assembly, processing, labeling, etc.
  • Become a key logistics base for Outward Processing Trade by establishing a logistics complex with global manufacturing companies involving complex logistics functions.
Global parts materials supply complex
  • Serve as a global supply base for specialized industries in the Southeast Region such as shipbuilding equipment and implements, mechanical parts and the cruise & yacht industry.
  • Serve as a global supply base for automobile parts by attracting automobile centers (K/D(Knock Down)) from other domestic areas and abroad.
SARR logistics complex
  • Reduce logistics costs of machine and electronics air freight in the Southeast Region by building an RFC (Ready for Carriage) center.
  • Secure a pivotal position in logistics in Northeast Asia by establishing a SARR logistics complex linking sea/air/rail/river transport nodes.
Complex terminal and support complex
  • Build a SARR (Sea-Air-Rail-River) terminal complex.
Knowledge - Creating City ▷ 4㎢
  • Build a sustainable future-oriented knowledge creation city.
  • Build a core city that attracts people, information and capital to become a driving force for innovative new industries.
  • Become a new landmark city as the new Venice of Asia by creating an environmentally friendly canal city.
Logistic Complex
Classification Major Functions
Knowledge Creation City
