Frequently asked questions
Does the center take equity, or provide only grant funding?
The center primarily provides non-dilutive grants and in-kind resources — prototyping facilities, regulatory support, and procurement pilots. It can occasionally take nominal equity through co-investment vehicles managed in partnership with Korea Development Bank or provincial SME funds, but equity returns are not the center's performance metric.
What is the relationship between this center and the other Creative Economy Innovation Centers in South Korea?
All 19 centers operate under the same national framework and share back-office infrastructure, but each selects its own sector focus based on regional economic strengths. Gangwon's center is distinct in its emphasis on bio-digital convergence and climate-adaptive technologies, driven by the province's manufacturing base and rural geography.
