Ando-geol, Former Vice Minister of Strategy and Finance, "Chosun University Should Be Developed as a 'Prosumer' Officer Academy"

Lecture for Graduate Students in the Department of Science and Technology Policy Convergence

Ando-geol, Chairman of the Economic Research Institute (former Vice Minister of Strategy and Finance), argued that Chosun University should be developed as a 'prosumer' training academy that produces and consumes Gwangju's future growth engines.

On the afternoon of the 9th, Chairman Ando gave a lecture to graduate students of the Department of Science and Technology Policy Convergence at Chosun University on the topic of "Gwangju's survival strategy to lead the flow of the 4th Industrial Revolution era."

He said, "Countries or cities that ride the wave of the 4th Industrial Revolution, which changes the world by integrating innovative technologies such as AI, big data, and bio, will leap forward, while those that do not will fall behind."

He continued, "The young people of Gwangju are full of talent and passion, and have excellent potential to lead industries that use their heads and hearts in the future. Therefore, they must build the capabilities to lead the technologies, companies, and industries that the 4th Industrial Revolution will bring."

He also explained, "The future growth engines that match the temperament of Gwangju citizens and industrial potential are the ABC industries (AI, BIO, CULTURE). By integrating these three industries, we must transform Gwangju's original downtown into a city of 'opportunity' where startup companies pour in, a city of 'vitality' that attracts young people, and a city of 'charm' that draws foreign tourists."

He added, "Chosun University must play the role of a 'prosumer'?the subject that creates new content and added value in the ABC industry fields while simultaneously consuming them. The development of Gwangju's original downtown and Chosun University are two sides of the same coin. Chosun University's innovative role is necessary to cultivate future growth industries."

Meanwhile, the Ando-geol Economic Research Institute is recognized as a think tank for Gwangju's development and plans to continue research, discussions, and agenda setting for Gwangju's progress through lectures and 'visiting policy meetings.'
