Global Science City Daejeon Goes Together with the 27th IASP World Conference to the Future
Abstract:
3. Could you tell us about Daejeon's endeavor to create new industries and its visions?
There is no doubt that the need for new growth engines that can replace existing flagship industries are ever growing in the face of overheating global competition, the advent of knowledge-based economies and depleting energy sources. Therefore, Daejeon has been keen on building renewable energy R&BD, nano fusion industries, a world-class cutting-edge medical industry cluster, and defense industries.
Firstly, we plan to build a renewable energy R&BD hub center by 2012. And the number of SMEs engaged in renewable energy will balloon from 44 to 100 by the same year with the goal of racking up KRW one trillion in sales and more than 3000 jobs. Secondly, we will set up a nano fusion industry technology center under the Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials (KIMM) and create 100 nanotechnology companies with the goal of achieving KRW one trillion in sales and creating 6,000 jobs by 2020.
Thirdly, capitalizing on Daedeok Innopolis's prowess in developing new medicines and state-of-the-art medical equipment, we are running several projects aimed at nurturing cutting-edge medical industries. Those projects include the establishment of Bio-Med Connect Center (BMCC); u-wellbeing city pilot projects; and the building of a high-tech medical cluster.
