Jeju Hosts Forum on 'Exploring Strategies for Fostering Global Carbon-Neutral Eco-Friendly New Materials'

The 2nd World Materials Congress at Jeju Convention Center until the 12th

Held under the theme 'The Future of Materials Science: Innovation and Sustainability'

The 2nd Global Conference on Innovation Materials 2024 (GCIM2024) is being held from the 8th to the 12th at the Jeju International Convention Center under the theme "The Future of Materials Science: Innovation and Sustainability."

The GCIM2024 features events including an opening ceremony, special lectures, keynote speeches, thematic sessions, special sessions, poster sessions, exhibition booths, and banquets.

This event is hosted by the Materials Research Society of Korea (MRSK, President Jin-Hyuk Kim, Professor of Advanced Materials Engineering at Chonnam National University), along with Chonnam National University, Chonnam National University Link Project Group, Institute of Optoelectronic Convergence Technology, Nano Engineering Research Institute at Chungnam National University, DGIST Magnetic-based Life Care Research Center, and Next-Generation Intelligent Semiconductor Project Group.

It is organized by the Ministry of Science and ICT, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, and ICC JEJU, and supported by Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST) and Korea Institute of Materials Science (KIMS).

This Global Conference on Innovation Materials 2024 (GCIM2024) serves as a platform to present research and development achievements aimed at fostering the national materials, parts, and equipment industry, and is recognized as the world’s leading academic conference in AI-based materials science to lead the digital transformation era.

The Global Conference on Innovation Materials is an international academic conference hosted by the Materials Research Society of Korea, the Korean representative society of the International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS). It is a Korea-led global materials conference comparable to the Materials Research Society (MRS) conference in the United States.

GCIM2024 will provide a venue for sharing technology development and commercialization strategies through leading research achievements and networking with key experts from industry and academia in materials engineering and new materials engineering fields, focusing on the latest materials research and technology trends.

This is expected to promote the overall advancement of domestic new materials technologies and further contribute to technological progress not only in Asia but globally, as well as significantly aid in the overseas promotion of domestic technologies.

Jin-Hyuk Kim, the organizing committee chair, stated, “During the transition to a global carbon-neutral city, we expect to raise interest through domestic and international promotion of related policies with key experts from the eco-friendly materials engineering and new materials engineering industries and academia.” He added, “By hosting the world’s leading academic conference in AI-based materials science to lead the digital transformation era, we have provided an opportunity to share domestic materials engineering technologies with the international community.”
