The Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation joins hands with Ajou for industry-academia cooperation and donates to the “AFTER YOU” Program

2015-12-23


Ajou University and the Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation (GCGF) signed an agreement on enhancing the competitiveness of industry-academia cooperation.


The agreement signing ceremony, which was held in Ajou's Yulgok Hall on December 22nd, was attended by about twenty people, including GCGF Chairman Byeong Ki Kim, and  President Dong Yeon Kim and Executive Vice President for Industry-Academia Cooperation Kyung Hee Choi from the University.


The agreement aims to support local industrial development by promoting economic activities, and to create leading models for industry-academia cooperation. Under the agreement, GCGF will provide Ajou's professors and students who start businesses, the companies within the Business Incubation Center under the University Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation, and the University's partner companies with credit guarantee services, counseling on business management, and various forms of financial assistance.


The two sides also agreed to foster excellent talents by participating in education to enhance the entrepreneurial mindset and promoting on-site training linked to finding jobs and starting businesses; to conduct joint research in industry-academia cooperation, work together for technological development along with support for commercialization, and promote the relevant achievements; and to seek exchanges between staff members from both sides by forming a council.


During the ceremony, GCGF promised to donate 10 million won to the University's “AFTER YOU” Program.
