The Korea-Japan Industrial Technology Fair has been organized by the foundation since 2008 to promote cooperation and mutual prosperity of companies in the parts and materials field of the bilateral countries.
This year’s event consisted of an award ceremony for companies that made significant contributions to industrial and technical cooperation between the two countries, ▲ consulting meetings for parts and materials procurement between the two countries’ businesses, ▲ technical guidance consulting by inviting 50 retired Japanese technicians to match them with local companies and ▲ Seminars on Korea-Japan Industrial Cooperation with a theme of ‘Sustainable Growth of Small and Medium-sized Companies.’
Chairman Cho Seok-rae (Chairman of the Board, Korea-Japan Cooperation Foundation for Industry and Technology) highlighted in the speech that “Amidst the continuing uncertainty of the global economy and sluggish economic growth, even the emerging markets including China, Korea and Japan face a slow economy. In the face of this financial hardship, the two countries should closely collaborate to overcome difficulties and make efforts to contribute to swift business recovery of East Asia.”
