European Commission

The KORANET Experience (I)
Insights from a Study Tour

• Key ideas
 Concerning cluster collaboration, there is still the way to
go: more interaction between researchers should be
matured beforehand
 Establishment of a virtual “system organiser” connecting
clusters in Korea and EU regions

European Commission

German Bilateral Cluster Cooperation
Funding

binationally
• 2 Stand alone collaborative research projects

 Expectations so far not met

European Commission

Conclusions

CMOs in Korea and Europe are different:

Character Korean CMOs
– Mini-Cluster: Top-down strategy based implementation of
innovation support – currently focused on domestic
coordination
– KICOX Cluster:
• Quasi “autonomous”, flexible development foreseen, but
• Central contact point for foreign interested parties

 Use existing contacts to Korean Innovation Area Organisations

 Use well organised “official“ channels for foreign cooperation
