23 Apr 2025 CW Team

The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority has advanced its Mumbai 3.0 vision by strengthening collaboration with the Republic of Korea, as part of a high-level engagement during the India Global Forum 2025.

At the Jio World Centre, MMRDA officials, led by Metropolitan Commissioner Dr Sanjay Mukherjee, met with a Korean delegation of policy, academic and business leaders to expand cooperation in smart city development, infrastructure modernisation, green mobility, and foreign direct investment.

The visiting delegation included Sang-ho Lee, Director of the Incheon Free Economic Zone Authority; Byeong-il Woo from KOTRA Mumbai; and senior officials from Seoul National University, World Smart Cities Forum (WSCF), and Kanavi Mobility.

The partnership builds on a Memorandum of Understanding signed last year between MMRDA and WSCF, under which Mumbai joined the Global Twin Cities Platform.

Plans were discussed to replicate Incheon’s transformation into a USD one hundred Bn smart economy and to introduce Korean innovations in artificial intelligence-based urban management, fintech, smart housing and sustainable transport.

Upcoming projects under Mumbai 3.0 include smart transit-oriented zones, mixed-use developments, data centres, fintech hubs, and affordable housing.
