“Post-APEC : Shaping the Future of Sustainable Global Cooperation”

With the 2025 APEC Leaders’ Summit taking place in Gyeongju,

the Korean Peninsula is drawing global attention as a new center of economy and diplomacy.


The “2025 Global Vision Summit – Post APEC” is designed as a follow-up event to the APEC Summit in Gyeongju, aiming to expand international cooperation beyond government-to-government dialogue by bringing together governments and private enterprises from around the world.


This Summit will focus on key future industries such as

AI, bio-health, culture, supply chains, and MICE, providing a platform where governments, businesses, and research institutions

can explore sustainable global partnerships that connect policy, technology, and markets. It aspires to serve as an actionable cooperation framework co-designed by both the public and private sectors.


 In addition, side events such as an investment conference introducing the competitive investment environment of Gyeongsangbuk-do, the APEC host region, and a gala program combining cultural diplomacy and networking will create a multidimensional space for international exchange, bridging economy, industry, diplomacy, and culture.
