Korea is an economic miracle. From one of the poorest countries in the 1950s – South Korea’s GDP per capita was lower that North Korea’s at the end of the Korean War – Korea has transformed from a recipient of international assistance to an aid donor with a US$2.2 trillion economy and free trade agreements with the US, the EU, and China.

Mr. Kim is the Chairman & CEO of the American Chamber of Commerce in Korea and the former CEO of GK Korea.  Craig Lesser, Managing Partner of the Pendleton Group, was the Georgia Commissioner of Trade when Kia decided to build its assembly plant in Georgia.
