Development Comparisons and Critiques of Songdo IBD.......................77 iii Kasarda and Chen 1 Introduction South Korea’s Incheon Aerotropolis leads the world in the combined magnitude, range, and quality of commercial investment in both its airport city core and peripheral business and urban clusters. Its planning and development epitomize the principles of “thinking big, acting fast, and doing it right”. The aerotropolis is anchored by dual central business districts: “Air-City” and Songdo International Business District (Songdo IBD). Incheon International Airport (ICN) hosts Air-City, an impressive array of office, convention, hospitality, shopping, leisure, and logistics complexes. A 21.4-kilometer, US$2.3 billion bridge links ICN and Air-City to Songdo IBD (formerly New Songdo City), a US$35 billion aviation-oriented smart city built on land reclaimed from the sea that cornerstones the much broader Incheon Free Economic Zone (IFEZ). Together, ICN, Air-City, Songdo IBD, and the IFEZ represent a paragon of airport, airport city, and aerotropolis development. Though not without challenges and critiques (that are discussed herein), their development paths and accomplishments can serve as models for successful airport, airport city, and aerotropolis initiatives elsewhere. ICN routinely ranks at the top in airport- industry surveys, laureled for its passenger experiences and services as well as its operational efficiency. Its Air-City is unmatched in its range of high-end commercial facilities and appeal to affluent tourists. The IFEZ has arguably been more successful in attracting modern businesses than any other airport-area economic zone while Songdo IBD has evolved into a hyperconnected airport edge city (and precursor of many other smart city initiatives) that limits sprawl, mitigates the effects of human activity on the environment, and addresses growing demand for sustainable development. Case Background In 2000, a year before ICN opened, the South Korean government and the new airport’s planners invited me (John Kasarda) to discuss airport city and aerotropolis

    The Top 20 Korean Multinationals: Changes and Continued Growth of Foreign Investment Seoul and New York, March 5, 2015 Graduate School of International Studies at Seoul National University in Seoul, and the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment (CCSI), a joint center of the Columbia Law School and the Earth Institute at Columbia University in New York, are releasing the results of their survey of Korean multinationals today. The survey, conducted during 2014, is part of a long-term study of the rapid global expansion of multinational enterprises (MNEs) from emerging markets.1 The research for this report was conducted in 2014 and covers the period from 2011 to 2013.2 Highlights In 2013, the top 20 Korean multinationals, ranked by their foreign assets (See Table 1), jointly held US$68.9 billion assets abroad.3 Most firms were subsidiaries of Korea’s eight leading business groups (or chaebols), including Samsung, POSCO, LG, Hyundai Heavy Industries, Hyundai-Kia Motors, SK, Lotte, and Hyosung Group. Five out of the 20 multinationals were also included in UNCTAD’s “Top 100 non-financial TNCs from developing and transition economies” in 2012.4 The average age of the top 20 firms is about 47 years, which is two times the average age of Korea’s top 1,000 firms (ranked in terms of total assets). There is a high concentration by the top players in the list in terms of foreign assets. Among the top 20 companies, Samsung Electronics, POSCO, and Hyundai Motor Company ranked in the top three in that order. There was a significant difference between first and second place, with the foreign assets of Samsung Electronics more than doubling that of POSCO.
