The Industry-Academia-Research Cooperation-Based R&BD Support Project was selected through a public offering by the Ministry of Science and ICT in May of this year as part of the ‘Regional Digital Innovation Hub Creation Support Project’, and is being implemented by the Ministry of Science and ICT, Busan Metropolitan City, the Information and Communication Industry Promotion Agency, and the Busan Information Industry Promotion Agency.
This project is a consortium-type support project to discover industry-academia-research collaboration business models and expand commercialization results centered on the Centum District Digital Innovation Hub.
Aegiya Factory Co., Ltd., a specialized company in fisheries logistics and distribution, signed a business agreement with the Korea Maritime and Ocean University Industry-Academic Cooperation Group to establish a research and development and practice center in the fisheries logistics field and to establish a research cooperation business agreement, thereby establishing a foundation for expansion in Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeonggi Province. ▲ROBOne Co., Ltd., a specialized company in AI robots based on AloT, introduced a waste plastic sorting robot to the Busan Metropolitan City Resource Recycling Center to improve worker convenience and improve waste sorting accuracy, contributing to the establishment of a low-carbon, virtuous cycle economy.
Team Reboot Co., Ltd., a specialized company in industrial AI SW development, developed a platform to automate import invoices that were processed manually, and completed verification testing by introducing it to the flower import process of the participating company, Kkotfarm Co., Ltd.
In addition, we passed the test conducted by the Korea Testing & Certification Institute, an authorized certification body, and secured SW quality. We also succeeded in attracting an investment of 500 million won from the Technology Guarantee Fund, and were recognized for our technological prowess and business potential.
In addition, we have promoted various technology development projects through cooperation between academia, industry, and research, such as the development of an electronic ink tag system for manufacturing logistics management (Neulpureun Information Technology Co., Ltd.), a foreign job matching platform (UPChain Co., Ltd.), and a data-based customized wellness service (Iyu Social Cooperative), and have achieved results in establishing a virtuous cycle system and research and development cooperation in the Centum District.
