Kim Changbeom, Vice Chairman of FKI, commented on the agreement, saying, "It is very meaningful that two institutions representing the business and academic sectors are working together in this era of rapid industrial transformation, driven by artificial intelligence transformation (AX) and green transformation (GX) as twin pillars. As carbon neutrality is itself the competitiveness of future industries, we, together with the academic sector, will present a Korea-style Green Transformation (K-GX) strategy that transforms energy transition into an opportunity for growth."



Kang Wontak, Director of the National Future Strategy Institute at Seoul National University, emphasized, "This agreement marks the starting point of cooperation to achieve both low-carbon transition and industrial competitiveness. Through joint research, seminars, and the exchange of knowledge and information, we will develop policy alternatives that can be applied in practice and contribute to resolving national challenges."
