In May 2009, the National Information Society Agency (NIA) has merged with the Korea Agency for Digital Opportunity and Promotion (KADO) keeping the name of NIA. Both agencies have been at the center of pioneering efforts in achieving ‘ICT and Knowledge Information Power Korea’. The history that NIA and KADO have accomplished during the past two decades is itself the history of Korea’s national informatization.
