 The Korea Overseas Infrastructure & Urban Development Corporation (KIND), led by President Kim Bok-hwan, announced on June 23 that it signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Korea Railroad Research Institute (KRRI) at KRRI’s conference hall to establish a foundation for cooperation in overseas railway projects.

 The agreement was signed to build a collaborative framework between the two organizations amid the continued expansion of Public-Private Partnership (PPP) projects in the global railway market. Through this partnership, KIND and KRRI aim to broaden business opportunities for Korean companies and facilitate their entry into overseas railway markets.

 Under the MOU, the two organizations will strengthen practical cooperation across various areas, including the sharing of information on overseas railway markets, the establishment and exchange of collaborative networks, as well as consulting services and joint research related to overseas railway projects.

 Prior to the signing ceremony, KIND and KRRI held a working-level exchange meeting where they shared their respective overseas business experiences and best practices, while engaging in in-depth discussions on strategic cooperation measures.

 “KIND’s extensive experience in overseas investment and development projects, combined with KRRI’s advanced railway technology expertise, will significantly enhance the competitiveness of Korean companies in securing contracts in the highly competitive global railway market,” said Kim Bok-hwan, President of KIND. “We will continue to work closely with KRRI to ensure that this agreement goes beyond a one-time event and leads to the identification of viable overseas railway projects and tangible achievements in supporting Korean companies’ global expansion.”
