The Seoul Forum 2026 Key Visual Design Contest, organized by Seoul Economic Daily, 

invites designers to create a compelling key visual that clearly and powerfully represents 

the provisional theme of Seoul Forum 2026: “New Core, New Industry”. 

Set against the global transition in which AI is becoming a core driving force of industry and society, 

this contest seeks a visual language that captures and communicates this transformative momentum.

and invite you to freely propose an image that encapsulates the message of Seoul Forum 2026.
