South Korea is reintroducing a state-led industrial policy aimed at enhancing its competitiveness in the technology sector. This new approach comes amidst a landscape of heightened uncertainty compared to previous industrialization efforts.
The government seeks to navigate these challenges while fostering innovation and growth in key industries.
