According to Yonhap News,

The Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency (KOTRA) and the American Chamber of Commerce in Korea (AMCHAM) on Thursday formed a strategic partnership to promote regulatory reform and boost bilateral trade between South Korea and the United States, the organizations said.

Under a memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed on the day, the two organizations agreed to collaborate on promoting regulatory reform and support initiatives that advance the U.S.-Korea economic partnership. They will set up a joint working-level committee to identify and recommend regulatory improvements to this end.

The two sides also plan to co-host briefings, exhibitions and export consultations while continuing to explore new opportunities to expand bilateral trade and investment.

"We hope this partnership with AMCHAM will serve as a valuable bridge for Korean small and medium-sized enterprises seeking to enter the U.S. market," KOTRA Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Kang Kyung-sung said.

James Kim, chairman and CEO of AMCHAM, said the partnership represents a key step forward in reducing non-tariff barriers in bilateral trade and strengthening South Korea's position as a premier regional business hub.
