WHO WE ARE
The Green Innovation Cooperation Center (GICC) is an ASEM-based multilateral cooperation platform established to support the green transition and climate technology collaboration of SMEs across the region.
GICC is funded by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups (MSS) of the Republic of Korea, operated by the ASEM SMEs Eco-Innovation Center (ASEIC), and based in Indonesia as an ASEAN regional hub.
It has evolved from the former Green Business Center (GBC), shifting from an office-space support model to a program-based, performance-oriented cooperation platform focused on eco-innovation and climate technology.
Why GICC
GICC has evolved beyond the conventional Green Business Center (GBC) model to become a strategic cooperation platform for green and climate technologies across ASEM. It serves as a results-oriented hub connecting SMEs and policy partners seeking engagement in ASEAN.
