In line with the Egyptian government’s endeavours towards digital transformation and expansion of new smart cities, Ambassador Hong of the Republic of Korea announced the 2021 K-City Global Partnership Programme.
Organised by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport of the Republic of Korea, the programme is a platform for Government to Government G2G co-operation aimed at providing technical assistance in smart city projects and knowledge sharing. The Korean Ministry will select projects to be implemented through the programme in smart city planning, solution planning, and solution demonstration.
