Dong-A University (President Lee Haewoo) and Dongseo University (President Jang Jeguk) announced on the 12th that they have signed a business agreement with the Busan Institute of Industrial Science and Innovation (President Seo Yongcheol) to promote the 'Glocal University 30 Project'.

The signing ceremony, held on the 11th at the main conference room of Dong-A University's Seunghak Campus, was attended by President Lee, President Jang, President Seo, and officials from the three institutions.

Through this agreement, Dong-A University, Dongseo University, and the Busan Institute of Industrial Science and Innovation will cooperate for the selection and promotion of the 'Glocal University 30 Project' and for establishing industry-academic cooperation policies to develop the local economy.

The Busan Institute of Industrial Science and Innovation (BISTEP) is a research and development institution funded by Busan Metropolitan City, which designs the future of Busan by reflecting the voices of science, technology, and the industrial field, and proposes policies that can be practically applied on site.

Additionally, BISTEP operates the 'Busan RISE Center', an affiliated organization that oversees local university financial support projects focused on regional, industrial, and academic cooperation, and will also focus on education-centered regional-industry-academia cooperation projects.

President Lee said, "I am pleased that we have signed a timely business agreement with BISTEP to establish regional-industry-academia cooperation based on the 'Integrated Industry-Academic Cooperation Group', which is a crucial pillar for the promotion of the Glocal University 30 Project by the Dong-A and Dongseo University consortium. I hope this will serve as an opportunity for the co-prosperity and development of the local community."

President Jang stated, "As we prepare for the Glocal University Project, I am delighted to collaborate with BISTEP, which plays a significant role in Busan's industry and scientific research sectors, together with Dong-A University. I hope for more practical cooperation for regional development, and I will do my best to achieve this."

President Seo remarked, "It is an honor to sign this agreement at the point where five university financial support projects are being integrated into 'RISE'. I hope that Dong-A University and Dongseo University, which play a major role in regional-industry-academia cooperation in Busan, will lead and establish themselves as a representative model for university innovation. As a public institution working for the development of Busan, we will actively support the designation of the Dong-A and Dongseo University consortium as part of the Glocal University 30."
