[Asia Economy Reporter Jeong Hyunjin] SK Group's industrial artificial intelligence (AI) specialized company Gauss Labs and Seoul National University New Media Communication Joint Research Center announced on the 3rd that they held a signing ceremony and agreed to cooperate to strengthen AI-related research capabilities and nurture outstanding talent.

Meanwhile, Gauss Labs is currently recruiting talent in Korea and the United States to accelerate growth. It also plans to continuously engage with domestic and international universities to secure technology and talent. Earlier in June, it signed a research exchange agreement with the AI program of the graduate cooperative course at Seoul National University.
