Applicant
Is it possible to apply for a demonstration project in collaboration with a smart city solution company or a local public institution instead of a local government?
닫힘
|
Forming a consortium with overseas partner governments(central and local governments only) is a prerequisite. Therefore, applications for verification with overseas private companies, universities, public institutions etc. without overseas partner organizations will be excluded from selection.

Applicant
Can overseas companies participate in the consortium if an overseas partner institution is involved?
닫힘
|
Foreign companies can also participate in forming a consortium, provided that overseas partner organizations are in the consortium. However, since the purpose of this project is to support domestic companies' overseas expansion, overseas partner organizations and overseas companies are not eligible for direct government subsidies.

Applicant
If a company holds a Letter of Intent (LOI) from an overseas partner institution, can it apply independently as a domestic company?
닫힘
|
Participating companies (institutions) other than the host organization are not required, so the host organization can apply alone under the premise of a consortium with an overseas partner organization.
|
|
Applicant
Since it may be difficult for SMEs to participate alone, is this a project that requires forming a consortium between companies and institutions?
닫힘
|
The host organization (domestic company) can apply alone under the premise of forming a consortium with an overseas partner organization, and there are no restrictions on the company size of the host organization.
