"This CEO Forum is being given detailed information about India's initiatives to attract investments in India Defence Corridors from Republic of Korea's defence industries," the minister tweeted.
Singh is also scheduled to attend a Business-to-Government (B2G) meeting with the participation of members of the Defence Industry from both sides with an aim to encourage co-operation between defence industries of India and South Korea.
Earlier in the day, the Defence Minister held bilateral talks with his South Korean counterpart Jeong Kyeong-Doo where they reviewed defence cooperation between both countries.
During the meeting, both sides agreed that there was great potential to further boost defence ties.

India is developing strong military hardware cooperation with South Korea as the Indian Army has already inducted the K-9 Vajra self-propelled howitzers (which has roots in South Korea's K-9 Thunder) built in partnership with the Indian firm Larsen and Toubro.
