On April 6th, SUNY Korea and 6 organizations including the IFEZ and universities associated in the IGC signed a Memorandum of Understanding to create Songdo International City as a bilingual city.
The organizations agreed on their communal effort to create a bilingual city connected to our local community and partner with English education-related organizations. Furthermore, they decided to plan specific action plans in order to perform other minor businesses related in making Songdo a bilingual city.
The purpose of the agreement is to build a public private partnership (PPP) through cooperation among the 7 organizations and carry out their specific action plans.
IFEZ is currently working on improving the living conditions of foreigners working in IFEZ and creating the bilingual city to accelerate businesses regarding foreign investment and acquisition of new companies.
