  • Daejeon, which has built its reputation as a leading city for science and technology, gained international exposure when it hosted the Daejeon Expo in 1993. Today, the city serves as Korea's second administrative capital and a major transportation hub. This brand-new convention city is equipped with a superb transportation infrastructure, state-of-the-art convention facilities, and a wide selection of attractions and accommodations.

  • Daejeon, where longstanding tradition and modern science co-exist, is reborn as a convention city of new concept. Daejeon is located in the center of South Korea and is a city characterized by its devotion to administration, national defense, science and technology. It is a clean and modern city with an excellent transportation system, state-of-the-art convention facilities, various tourist attractions and a wide range of accommodation. The biggest strength of Daejeon as a MICE destination is that it is the hub of Korea's science and technology industries.

  • The Daejeon Convention Center, which will be managed by the Daejeon CVB and completed in early 2008, will give the city a major boost in providing support for conventions. The Daejeon Convention Center will be situated in SMART City (also known as the Convention Complex Zone in Doryong-dong Yuseong-gul), where visitors can find shopping malls, and comfortable and convenient accommodations.
    Additionally, visitors can explore and experience nearby venues such as the KOTRA Exhibition Center in Daejeon, Expo Park, the Daejeon Culture and Arts Center, the Municipal Museum of Fine Arts and Hanbat Arboretum.
