Teaming up Korea, India ...science and technology


Teaming up Korea, India ...science and technology

Science and technology are two driving forces for the economies of South Korea and India, with tremendous potential for projects that link both sides.

To capitalize on this potential, India’s Science and Technology Minister Pawan Kumar Bansal came to Seoul to take part in the first Ministerial Steering Committee meeting on May 4.

“We agreed on the need to promote human resource exchange and joint research in promising next-generation science and technology fields,” said Bansal.

Bansal and Education, Science and Technology Minister Lee Ju-ho exchanged views on the recent industry policy trends and recognized the importance of further strengthening cooperation in the field. 

The two ministers agreed to launch an exchange program for those wishing to advance their education in engineering and medical sciences. The program will commence in the second half of this year.

The details for funding, scale and period will be discussed at a later date.

In response to the large number of proposals, 15 projects out of 129 were jointly agreed on for support.

To promote human resource exchanges, a memorandum of understanding was signed between the Korea Institute of Science and Technology and the Indian Department of Science and Technology.

Both sides agreed to develop mega research programs in mutually identified technology areas of importance to the two countries such as low grade coal based energy, biomass, nanoscience and technology and information technology.

The “India-Korea Great Innovation Science and Technology Challenge” will be organized in India next year.

Also, workshops in the areas of chemistry and biochemistry technology will run in the second half of this year while a workshop on health and medical science will take place next year.

The next Ministerial Steering Committee Meeting will be held in India in 2012 and every two years thereafter.

Yesterday, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a 30 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.
My apple ipad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but
I had to share it with someone!

모디 "한국-인도 동반자관계, 아시아 성장·안정에 이바지"

나확진 특파원 = 나렌드라 모디 인도 총리가 "한국과 인도의 동반자 관계가 아시아의 성장과 안정, 번영에 이바지할 것"이라며 양국 협력의 필요성을 강조했다. 모디 총리는 27일 인도 뉴델리에서 열린 한-인도 비즈니스 서밋에 참석해 기조연설에서 이같이 말했다. 그는 인도에서 건너와 가락국 김수로왕과 결혼했다는 허 왕후 설화에서부터 불교의 전파, 한국을 '동방의 등불'이라고 부른 인도 시인 라빈드라나트 타고르 등을 언급하면서 양국 관련성을 강조했다. 그는 구자라트 주 총리로 재직 당시 방한 경험을 거론하며 "세계적인 브랜드를 만들고 유지하는 한국 국민을 존경한다"고 말했다. 그는 자동차, 철강, 조선, 주택, 도시개발, 철도, 에너지 등 여러 분야에서 두 나라의 협력 가능성이 크다며 양국이 협력해 아프리카 등 제삼국 시장으로도 함께 진출하자고 덧붙였다. 코트라와 조선일보, 인도경제인연합회(CII)가 공동 주최한 이번 행사에 백운규 산업통상자원부 장관, 송영길 한국·인도 국회의원 친선협의회장, 대한상공회의소 회장인 박용만 두산인프라코어 회장, 최태원 SK그룹 회장, 정의선 현대차그룹 부회장, 손경식 CJ그룹 회장, 조양호 한진그룹 회장, 조현준 효성그룹 회장, 권오준 포스코 회장 등이 참석했다. 모디 총리 외에 아룬 제틀리 재무장관, 수레시 푸라브 상공부 장관, 라비 샨카르 프라사드 정보기술부 장관과 마힌드라 그룹의 아난드 마힌드라 회장 등이 참석했다. 모디 총리는 박용만 회장 등 한국 경제인들과 별도로 간담회를 하고 인도 정부에 바라는 점과 투자 애로 등을 청취했다. 또 현대차가 만든 수소전기차 '넥쏘'에 정의선 부회장과 함께 탑승하기도 했다. 백운규 장관은 "조선, 자동차, 철강, 전자 등 한국이 경쟁력이 있는 분야에서 인도와 협력을 강화할 필요가 있다"면서 "스마트 시티와 전력 등 인도 인프라·에너지 분야에서는...
