Governor Kemp leads economic development mission to Republic of Korea
Georgia – Governor Brian P. Kemp and First Lady Marty Kemp are leading an international economic development mission that begins in the Republic of Korea. The visit focuses on strengthening strategic economic partnerships in recognition of the 40th anniversary of Georgia’s representation in Seoul.
“Georgia has enjoyed a strong and friendly relationship with the Republic of Korea for 40 years,” said Governor Kemp. “This visit reflects our commitment to deepening those ties even further, through the creation of opportunities that benefit both our people and our economies.”
The Governor and First Lady are joined by Georgia Department of Economic Development Commissioner Pat Wilson, other senior officials, and private sector partners. The delegation will meet with existing industries and host a commemorative reception to honor four decades of partnership.
“Georgia is home to an incredible Korean community that is driving innovation in key industries, shaping the next generation of growth, and contributing to Georgia’s thriving international culture,” said Commissioner Wilson. “Korean companies that call Georgia home are more than businesses – they are partners, job creators, friends, and good neighbors.”
This marks the third time Governor Kemp has visited the Republic of Korea since taking office in 2019.
