Pangyo Techno Valley

Pangyo Techno Valley (PTV) is an industrial complex in the city of Pangyo, Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea. It is also known as the Silicon Valley of Korea.[1] The complex focuses on information technology, biotech, cultural technology and fusion technology. One of the benefits of the diversity of fields and businesses is the maximized growth potential in the field of high-tech technology through exchanges between the companies. The location within a major metropolitan area creates synergy effects because of the proximity to other techno valleys or adjacent knowledge-based infrastructure clusters in the province. The business environment of the PTV is supported by the government of the Gyeonggi Province through the implementation of various support facilities as for examples a R&D center or public support center.[2][3]

Techno Valleys in Korea are playing an important role in innovation, creating new jobs and as hubs for technology start-ups. They are supported by the government through policy measures as for example tax-cuts, low interest loans or an expansion of the infrastructure.[4][5]

Construction[edit]

Opened in 2011,[6] Pangyo Techno Valley covers an area of about 661,000 m2 in total. The general research site covers about 267,000 m2. This site has direct researching facilities, research developing facilities, and school-work linked researching facilities. The research supporting site covers about 118,000 m2. This site has guest houses, dormitories, a specialized graduate school, and a job training center. There has also been established a Global R&D center that covers about 46,488 m2 (building) and 12,578 m2 (land). It provides e.g. conference and education rooms. The parking lot covers 21,716 m2.[7][8][9]

After the success of the Pangyo Techno Valley a second Pangyo Techno Valley is under construction. The second Pangyo Techno Valley covers about 425,760 m2 in total. The first phase is expected to be finished in December 2019. The second phase is scheduled to be completed in June 2019.[10][11][12] There are also plans for a third Pangyo Techno Valley that should be implemented until 2022 according to the region's governor. It will be built on a 583,581 m2 site in Geumto-dong, Seongnam, Gyeonggi.[13]

Companies[edit]

Economy[edit]

In 2017 already more than 1300 companies were based in the Pangyo Techno Valley, generating over 77.4 trillion Korean Won in sales. 22 percent of the province's gross domestic product is generated in the Pangyo Techno Valley.[27] Due to the Shinbundang Line and various other transportation links the techno valley is well connected to Seoul and the Pangyo Station's business district will grow in size.[28][29]
