Chonnam National University Selected as Finalist for 'Creative Asset Commercialization Support Project'
[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Jamin] Chonnam National University announced on the 16th that it has been finally selected as a university advancing to the second phase in the stage evaluation of the 'University Creative Asset Commercialization Support Project' (BRIDGE+ Project).
The BRIDGE+ Project, supported by the Ministry of Education and the National Research Foundation of Korea, identifies the final demand needed for products or processes desired by companies and promotes convergence and complex technology commercialization through technology transfer of promising university technologies or autonomous collaboration between universities.
Chonnam National University received an overall positive evaluation for the first phase project, including discovering excellent assets, building partnerships through the operation of the corporate membership (CNU 100 Club), identifying final corporate demand, and linking with the BRIDGE+ program (R&BD planning, BM design, commercialization development, etc.), resulting in support of approximately 1.1 billion KRW in project funds this year.
Since being selected for the first phase project in 2018, Chonnam National University will continue to carry out the second phase project (March 2020 to February 2023). Going forward, it will play a leading role in university technology commercialization by maximizing profit generation through commercialization of promising technologies linked to final corporate demand, materials, parts, and equipment (SoBuJang), and the three major new industries, as well as reinvestment in technology commercialization.
