After visiting Gangwon, the National AI Strategy Committee went to Daegu and North Gyeongsang to review the state of AI transformation in local industries.
Full-time Vice Chair Ha Jung-woo attended the opening ceremony of FIX 2026 at EXCO in Daegu on the 21st and visited local manufacturing AX sites, the Process Innovation Simulation Center, and the L&F Plus plant.
The inspection reviewed the current state of AX adoption and related tasks in key industries in Daegu and North Gyeongsang, including secondary batteries, mobility, and robotics.
After visiting Gangwon, the National AI Strategy Committee traveled to Daegu and North Gyeongsang to check on the region's AI transformation efforts. The sites under review were AX, or AI transformation, projects in manufacturing, robotics, and mobility.
The National AI Strategy Committee said full-time Vice Chair Ha Jung-woo will carry out his Daegu schedule on the 21st. Ha will attend the opening ceremony of the '2026 Future Innovation Technology Expo (FIX 2026)' at EXCO in Daegu and visit local manufacturing AX sites.
In August, the government presented the 'Plan to Foster Regional Growth Engines Linked to the Three Major Mega Projects.' The plan calls for developing the Daegu-Gyeongbuk region into a hub for advanced materials and parts and AI robots.
During the visit, the committee reviewed the current state of AX adoption in key industries in Daegu and North Gyeongsang, including secondary batteries, mobility, and robotics, as well as related tasks for AX in those core industries. Ha emphasized the importance of AI transformation by leveraging the region's manufacturing base, including mobility and robotics.
FIX 2026, under the theme 'AI Becomes Part of Everyday Life Beyond Technology,' will run from the 21st to the 24th. The event will feature 510 domestic and overseas companies and 2,100 booths. The exhibition areas will cover future mobility, robotics, AI, ICT, and startups.
Vice Chair Ha said Daegu is a city with a manufacturing base that can immediately apply AI in fields such as future mobility and robotics. He added that he expects Daegu to take the lead in the spread of AI across industrial sites and citizens' daily lives.
After the opening ceremony, he is scheduled to tour the exhibition hall and discuss regional AX policy issues with Daegu Mayor Hong Joon-pyo. In the afternoon, he will visit the AI-based Process Innovation Simulation Center in Seongseo Industrial Complex in Dalseo District.
The Process Innovation Simulation Center is operated by the Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation of Kyungpook National University. The center uses high-performance computing (HPC) and GPU servers to support small and mid-sized companies in virtual product development and performance verification. The committee said more than 180 companies have used the center over the past three years.
Vice Chair Ha first checked the center's operations and reviewed corporate AX cases. He then discussed ways to enhance the competitiveness of aging industrial complexes through AI with officials from Daegu city and the center.
He will then visit the L&F Plus plant in Dalseong County to inspect a manufacturing AX site where AI is applied to the production process for cathode materials used in secondary batteries. The L&F Plus ABB demonstration factory is a Digital Twin Consortium (DTC) software-defined manufacturing (SDM) testbed case and is awaiting official approval.
Vice Chair Ha said that mobility, robotics, and secondary battery sites are all connected to the Daegu-Gyeongbuk region's growth engines. He also said he plans to closely review field opinions from small and mid-sized companies to leading firms.
