   The ‘Flexible Printing Electronics New Electronics Project Technology Development’ (Project Supervisor, School of Materials Science and Engineering Professor Kim Hye-gyeong) pursued by the industry-academic-research consortium (see participating institutes on the right) comprised of local governments such as Gyeongsangbuk-do, Andong, Gumi, and Gyeongsan, and college industry-academic cooperation foundations, research institutes, corporations, etc., was selected as the Science Technology Project to Open the Future of the Region. With this selection, a total budget of 11.4 billion KRW including 5.7 billion KRW in national funding will be used for the five-year project starting this year.

 

  The ‘Science Technology Project to Open the Future of the Region’ is a project that supports technological development and commercialization R&D needed for regional development, and it is an R&D project initiated and planned by the region including planning, selection, and detailed business plans.

 

  The ‘Flexible Printing Electronics New Electronics Project Technology Development’ that was selected received good evaluations from the MSIT for technological development customized to local demand, correlation with industry fostering, details of project contents, composition of regional consortium, etc., as it was judged to be in line with the MSIT’s project direction.

 

  Printed electronics are electronic circuits or electronic parts made through a printing process. Flexible printing electronics technology is a printing electronics technology that is flexible and it is expected to become an opportunity to overhaul the traditional local electronics industry into a new electronics industry.

 

  The YU Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation Consortium plans to develop and commercialize flexible printing electronics materials, parts and process equipment packages to pave the foundation to make Gyeongbuk the center of new electronics industry science industries.
