The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy will hold the ‘2020 Korea Industrial Technology R&D Competition’ online for three days from the 16th to the 18th.
Held under the theme of’Era of Uncertainty, Innovation and Survival of Industrial Technology’, an online exhibition hall (www.ktechshow.or.kr) that showcases 142 innovative products with 103 companies and institutions will be prepared.
The exhibition hall is ▲’Mega Trend Pavilion’, which introduces biohealth, information and communication technology (ICT) and smart technology ▲’Materials, Parts, Equipment Pavilion’, which showcases advanced materials, materials, parts, and equipment expertise ▲ Future energy industry It is composed of six themes, including the’K-New Deal Hall’ to be introduced.
Innovative technologies such as’Smartphone Pupil Analysis Heart Information Extractor’ developed for the first time in the world,’Nargo’, a logistics robot capable of fully autonomous driving even indoors without GPS, metal powder technology exclusively for 3D printing, and super solar cells are available.
In addition, various side events such as the Future Industry Policy Forum, an industry-academia-research technology exchange event, a lecture by Alberto Saboia, the author of’The Rule of Invincibility of Ideas’, and an evaluation session for winning the industrial convergence hackathon, are held.
On this day, the first day of the event, rewards were given to those of great merit in the development of industrial technology.
The Gold Tower Order of Industrial Service Merit, the highest honor, was awarded by Samsung Electronics President Choi Si-young, who led the development of core semiconductor technologies such as the world’s first 3D NAND development.
