About Seoul Digital Foundation
Seoul Digital Foundation (SDF), established in 2016 by the Seoul Metropolitan Government, serves as a nexus for city-wide digital innovation within Seoul, South Korea's prominent economic, social, and cultural hub. In line with its mandate from the Seoul Metropolitan Government, SDF conducts research and consultation on information and communication technology (ICT) to perform core responsibilities including fostering the digital economy, solving urban issues through innovative technologies, assisting IT startups in Seoul, developing and providing digital literacy education for Seoul residents, managing the Gaepo Digital Innovation Park, and hosting the annual Seoul International Digital Festival. The foundation seeks to create a next-generation digital infrastructure for Seoul, addressing safety, transportation, and environmental challenges through state-of-the-art digital technologies, particularly as the city navigates economic shifts driven by the emergence of the shared economy, online-to-offline commerce, and big data. SDF also serves as the secretariat for the Global Digital Innovation Alliance (GDIA), a network of innovation institutes and organizations working cooperatively to resolve urban issues and strengthen sustainable development through annual conferences, joint programs, and support for citizen-led innovation, startups, and NGOs. The foundation has more recently expanded its work around AI administrative innovation, citizen engagement, and global collaboration as Seoul positions itself as a leading AI-powered smart city.
