　　众所周知，中国正成为世界经济发展的火车头。2002年，当全球经济普遍陷入困境的时候，唯有中国　　经济一枝独秀，仍然保持8.0%的高速增长，随着中国加入世界贸易组织（WTO），2008年（北京）奥运会和2010年（上海）世界博览会的申办成功，西部大开发和“十·五”计划的实施，中国潜在的巨大市场更是吸引了全世界投资者的目光。
　　大韩贸易投资振兴公社自1991年在北京设立韩国贸易馆以来，分别在中国的上海、广州、大连、青岛、成都、武汉等地设立了贸易馆，加上原来的台北和香港贸易馆，贸易馆总数已达到9个，这一点充分体现了我们对中国市场的重视。
　　中国地区的韩国贸易馆自设立以来，秉承“创造、开拓、奉仕”的社训，根据韩国政府和中国政府的法律、法规和政策，在对外贸易和投资领域，利用多种形式开展与中国的交流和合作，促进两国经济在双赢的基础上，积极向上发展。
KOTRA came into being as the Korea Trade Promotion Corporation, a non-profit governmental organization established June 21st 1962 to pursue the national policy goals of maintaining the trade balance and building a self-rdliant economy.
For almost four decades, KOTRA has contributed to the development of the Korean economy through various trade promotion activities, such as trade information, market research services and business matchmaking.
With its long-term experience and expertise, KOTRA stands fully ready to serve and assist all interested parties worldwide to do business with Korea.
In August 1995, KOTRA added cross-border investment promotion and support for technological and industrial cooperation projects to its mandate, assuming its present name of the “Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency.”
The Korea Investment Service Center (KISC) was established within KOTRA July 1st 1998 as the country’s sole authorized investment promotion organization, vested with the function of providing foreign investors with one-stop service intended to cover everything from investment plan consultation to settlement support.
Since the economic crisis of 1997, the Korean government has been pursuing a strategy of encouraging exports and inducing foreign investment in the belief such a two-fold approach is the only way to return the country to prosperity and sustainable growth. KOTAR is committed to playing a key role in the implementation of this policy.
In order to execute its mandate more efficiently, KOTRA has built an extensive worldwide network of overseas Korea Trade Centers (KTC). 98 KTCs operate in 72 countries as of Oct 2002.
In preparation for the e-business enviroment, the agency launched interactive Internet portal sites, Cyber KISC and Silkroad 21, in 1999 and 2000 respectively. These sites will play a key role in creating new business opportunities with Korea on cyber space.
