On October 7, Gangwon's Governor Kim Jin-tae, who recently returned from a business trip to Alberta, Canada, and Boston, USA, announced that Gagnwon State will expand follow-up exchange projects.

In a press conference, Governor Kim said that "50 years ago, Alberta and Gangwon were interested in the livestock and agricultural sectors, but now we are racing to become a hub of future industries," adding, "We will use the Korea Forum, which Alberta will hold in Seoul in February next year, as an opportunity to expand exchanges."

In addition, he added that "we're invited to the Canadian Hydrogen Convention to be held in Alberta next April," adding, "We will resume sports exchanges, which have been suspended so far, by sending 2 high school curling teams of 15 students next year."

He added that "Entegris, located in Boston, US, promised to make investment more than that made in Munmak plant in Wonju," saying, "we will sign an MOU with the Korea Health Industry Development Institute (KHIDI) to use its branch in Boston as a stepping stone for companies in the province to enter the global market."

He also highlighted that "University of Massachusetts Medical School and Hallym University signed an MOU and began joint research on AI-based un-tact treatment programs."
