Second Announcement EKC2008
EU-Korea Conference on Science and Technology
28-31 August, 2008
Marriott Hotel
Heidelberg, Germany
Background
Current research fields in science and technology will be presented and discussed at the EKC2008, which will inform about the interests and directions of EU countries and Korea. The Korean Scientists and Engineers Association in the FRG (VeKNI) is organizing the EKC2008 jointly with the Korean Scientists and Engineers Association in the UK (KSEAUK), the Korean Scientists and Engineers Association in France (ASCoF), and the Korean Scientists and Engineers Association in Austria (KOSEA). This conference is dedicated to the 35th anniversary of the foundation of VeKNI.
Objective
The EU has been steadily increasing both in the number of its members and in its economic volume. The different economies of the EU countries are becoming more unified, and are achieving a close cooperation in science and technology. For instance, the EU Research Framework Programme - the world’s largest funding programme for research projects - prompts research projects throughout the entire EU community. In the future, the EU will play an increasingly leading role in the world.
In the last decades Korea has experienced a rash development of its economy and the level of its science and technology. Korea's economic volume is currently positioned about 12th in the world, and it is a leading country in communication technology, home entertainment and shipbuilding. But despite these achievements, many EU citizens still think of Korea as a minor industrial country.
It will be beneficial for both Korea and the EU to get to know each other better, especially in fields of science and technology. EKC2008 has emerged from this idea.
