서울시, 코로나19 피해 디자인업계에 20억 지원

The Seoul city government and the Seoul Design Foundation are teaming up to support small designing firms struggling due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
Hosting an open competition, they'll be giving out one-point seven million U.S. dollars in prize money to a thousand winners.
For a chance to win, any individual or company with fewer than 4 employees can submit their design ideas for "COVID-19 and the New Normal".
Judges will pick the winners based on the creativity of the designs and other factors.
The winners will receive their prize in early September.
The city said the competition is aimed at helping small firms that are struggling to stay afloat due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
