German Business Delegation Visit to South Korea
Meet German companies from the Lightweight Technologies Industry


An highly innovative market and big players in a broad field of application sectors – these are the key competitive advantages that induce the German light weight technologies and solutions producers to increasingly shift their attention to the cutting-edge leader South Korea. Withstanding the tectonic shifts caused by the global pandemic COVID-19, Korea continues to promise massive growth and ever-increasing importance for the industry. In order to enable Korean-German collaboration, the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection (BMWK) has established the “MEP Business Development Program Korea-Germany on lightweight technologies”, which, over the course of two years, offers an array of events that bring both countries closer together.
This project is realized on behalf of the BMWK by the German consulting company SBS systems for business solutions in collaboration with the Korean-German Chamber of Commerce (KGCC).
With this project the BMWK is supporting primarily small-to-medium sized German companies in the filed of the lightweight technologies in their effort to export German technology to the world.
The project aims to provide German players first-hand insights in business practices in Korea and the Korean light weight industry and foster further business collaborations.
In a first visit of a German company delegation to Korea in July 2022, the German companies engaged with the Korean industry and explored possibilities for collaborations.
Now we are preparing a second visit to Korea, that brings a German lightweight business delegation of seven excellet companies to Seoul to connect with the Korean lightweight industry.
SBS systems for business solutions and the Korean-German Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KGCCI) cordially invite you to a Korean-German business seminar and networking in Seoul on November 28th, 2022, for Korean companies in the lightweight industry. In the following days there will be opportuinities for individual B2B meetings with the German companies all aorund the country.
This is a great opportunity for Korean companies and institutions to explore new business and collaboration opportunities and to discover potential synergies with the German participants.
We cordially invite you to join the presentation events and to contact us for the scheduling of individual meetings.
