Korean data analytics sector market intelligence published – get your free copy

As part of a series of Korean market analyses for the UK’s Department of International Trade (DIT), we’ve produced an intelligence report on Korea’s fast-developing data analytics sector. 

The DIT has now published this report, which focuses on the opportunities for western businesses and the challenges to be overcome. You can get your free copy from the DIT website below.

Following the recent publication of our report into Korea’s artificial intelligence market, this latest market analysis builds on our track record of helping western companies expand into the data analytics sector in Korea, as well as China and Japan.
